The wait list went online around 12:15 a.m. Friday, August 7. Assigned numbers seem to have started at 2400. However, according to someone who spoke to Rose Tours, just because you have number 2425 does not mean there are 25 people in front of you.
What does that mean? Well, for one, many people seem to have signed up more than once. More importantly, these numbers only represent the regular wait list. Ahead of this group is the "priority" wait list.
Those on the priority wait list had money taken from or charged to their accounts but did not receive a confirmation number or vice versa (got a confirmation number but weren't charged). I don't have a count on how many people this includes, but it seems to be more than 15. Most seemed to be getting calls Saturday.
Did this happen to you? Leave a comment and let us know.
I was charged and did not get a confirmation #! I did get a call from RT today telling me that they are refunding my deposit and putting me on the priority list until they get their inventory figured out. Waiting desperately for that call from RT telling me they have a cabin for us!
ReplyDeletei will be checking daily thank you
ReplyDeleteI was trying to get in the roommate match program but I kept getting to the busy booking system message and never had the chance. I can't really afford to go this time around by my self.
ReplyDeleteI was told by RT that I'm on the priority list and that I should hear back from them by the middle of next week. Got a call today telling me I was being refunded my deposit $ until they are for sure that they have me a cabin.
ReplyDeleteHi Katie! This happened to me also..I am on the Priority List and Hoping to get a call...I just gotta be on that ship!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are one of the ones who had a confirmation # duplicate (same #, 2 different rooms/people/cc). All credit cards have been charged, but apparently we do not have a room. We have not received any phone calls.
ReplyDeleteThat was my exact situation duplicate confirmation # for 2 Rooms...We got called today at around noon and were told we were on the Priority Waiting List..I am keeping my fingers crossed that it all works out :)
ReplyDeleteThis happened to me! What a headache. Its Saturday night (I'm in California). I called and spoke to Jeannie on Thursday around 12 pm (Pacific) and she found the charge to my card on her computer, but no reservation on her "system" (a system she could not access but whoever was sitting next to her could - but at a very slow pace - some wind/rain storm caused this problem). She guaranteed me a room b/c I was charged. Haven't heard back from them. Spoke to someone on Friday, but wasn't able to get to Jeannie as she was "extremely busy". I'll call back on Monday.
ReplyDeleteMy roomie and I were stuck on step 4, so didn't get confirmation# as I was being kicked out. I stopped refreshing and hitting the back arrow, when I realized the deposit was already taken off. thought was ok to assume got a room, but just took a lil bit for email to come thru. nada.called RT and they saw money taken out, but said the room was booked because it took too long. they told me that they would take care of me as a priority since money was taken. than they said that would be put us on a priority list. They didn't call me on Saturday, i had called them to get confirmation on the whole refund bit. So we're on the priority wait list. but sorry calling them on Monday to make sure. just to ease my mind because of person I spoke to. Money still in account. Still no email from Jeannie.
ReplyDeleteWanna call them tomorrow...did get a confirmation# but didn't receive an email and they told me they couldn't find me in their reservations but now my creditcard is charged...I think they maybe had a problem to find me because I'm from Germany and got a mutated vowel in my lastname and my city...Well...I'm totally confused at the moment because I do not know if I've booked already and they just got a problem with my name or if I get on this priority waitlist at all...
ReplyDeleteTry to be positive...but it isn't easy because we booked with 8 girls and I'm the only one who didn't get a confirmation email...
Hope we all get on this cruise!!! Good luck to everyone!!! Hugs
Have to wait until tomorrow :(
