    Should i be pissed at this
    So before i had my casino meltdown i had a cruise pretty much already booked for this year. It got canceled and i got what was supposed to be 25% credit . They sent me an amount for each room what the credit was . I rebooked with my travel guy at that cruise line and with the credit difference upgraded my wife and my room to the next level and got some room credit and a drink credit . Then my nieces got drink upgrades and room credit too.

    So he hands it over to them and there should be no additional cost except the taxes. I booked 3 rooms total . So i did not see the rooms linked together but i noticed our room which should have been 100% covered there was $900 still owed and the amount of credit did not look right. I left a message for our guy and it gets changed. To higher . Now they want $1300+ .

    So i call and this lady Susan tells me they made a mistake on the credit . This is after everything was done with my rep at the same cruise line that told me i would owe nothing but the taxes. I asked her how are they fixing this and she says to the lower amount. And the other 2 rooms were wrong too (Their mistake) .

    IDK if this is an honest mistake but i feel this was not the deal we agreed on. I left a message for my guy and i told Susan if this is going to cost me thousands more then we already agreed on i was going to probably cancel. Originally we had a Concierge class room handicapped . But the new cruise did not have handicapped. But i figured our credit paid for the upgrade which had handicapped.

    My wife has time shares 5 weeks so we can do something else . And if they turn around and want a couple thousand more AFTER making this deal to rebook with them i feel like this is almost a bait and switch . Although it could be an honest mistake . But it is their mistake i do not want to pay thousands more then before i cancelled.

    Would you guys cancel if they do not agree to the deal we made already?

      Yes I'd cancel since they are not upholding their end of the bargain.

      Even if it was a mistake on their end, they should take it on the chin ad give you whatever they originally told you.

        Never been on a cruise but I hear bad things.

        Whats with the time shares? I also hear that those are a very bad deal And always see attorneys on the TV telling people they can get them out of them.

                  Yea they upgraded us with the credit difference to a better room from Concierge to Aquaclass. Nieces stayed the same but upgraded drink packages to premium and $200 credit each except one niece gets $400 since she is alone in room. We got same deal but better room and the $200 each.

                  If they give us what was promised i will keep it. But not at where it is now .I am even willing since it may have been an honest mistake to pay a little more but no way where it is now they should have to eat most of it. Between all our rooms i am assuming they will want an extra $2000-$3000 probably. I already paid like $10000+ into this .

                    You probably got in way early and they had no clue how the turnout would be. All the clowns who’ve got the Vaccination are ready to party and put that immune system to the test so you are ****** as they have plenty willing to take your place at full price...

                      Yea but now there is that new Europe strand that has actually hit someone in Philly i think so that may make the vaccine worthless if it starts spreading.

                        I'd not only cancel the cruise, I'd never give them business again.

                                ...also, was this a recent casino meltdown?

                                I remember you posting something about a casino meltdown a year or two ago.

                                I had a pretty bad one myself the other day. Was drunk and lost about 10k on nitrogen playing blackjack. It stung but Life Goes On.

                                Was kicking myself for a couple days but, whatever shit happens.

                                Lol Actually now that I think about it a couple days later I lost another 5k in cash at the Hard Rock playing poker and blackjack. Lol oops.

                                It's pretty funny my ex (that I still fukk) is trying to get me to buy her braces, they are 5k. If she knew she would be soooooo pissed. Hahahaha

                                  This was the really bad one at Caesars that took everything out of my house fund and put me in the negative Bigtime with PlayPals. It is the worst i ever had but before that i had already paid a bunch of this cruise off.

                                  I have been staying away from there as it is on full cheat mode in there . Once in awhile i just play a bonus and if it loses i get out but i cannot get anything anymore.

                                  I owe so much on Playpal i just put what i can when i can i am also trying to put back onto my house fund. Oh the girl i spoke to today said they are working on the rooms so the last lady sounded like i was getting the lesser cruise credit which i will cancel if they do that but the lady today said i was getting the deal that was promised.

                                  The deal that was newer other then the taxes should cost me around $400 or so left on my one niece. What tried to do would cost me around $3400 so a $3000 difference.

                                  Yea do not let your Ex ever find that out holy crap you know what she would exactly say since the $5000 would have paid for her braces.

                                    Well hope it works out.

                                    I usually don't get my nose open like that but I don't know something just came over me.

                                    My ex is an idiot she doesn't even need braces she just wants her teeth to be perfect. She basically told me she would give me blowies for life if I bought the braces, But we all know how that goes once the money is spent and the braces are off I'm sure she can find something to get pissed about and I'd quit getting the blowies.

                                    She already gives them to me for free why would I pay lol.

                                      Yea that is too big an amount on something that is not a necessity and you may end up getting not that much out of it. Maybe get a lawyer and have her sign that if she does not give you eternal BJs you get to take her teeth . That would be fair lol.

                                        Did you make a thread about the Caesars loss? Would like to read it.

                                        Makes me feel good knowing that there are other degenerates besides me.

                                          I did not make a thread in particular i think i just mentioned when it happened on one of my pick threads . It honestly destroyed my life at the time i was beyond depressed.

                                          I totally lost control and Playpal when i started losing it kept letting me deposit over and over even though i did not have the money Not only did my checking go in the negative but Playpal since i lost all control i kept putting $800 after $800 after $800 in and kept losing it. It was so badly rigged it was getting a 20 or 21 60+ % of the times. the worse it got the more mad i got and the more of a hole i dug myself in. I got my checking back Ok luckily i have a good paying job. But Playpal was another story.

                                          But to get out of the negative in the bank i had to use my house fund i had been saving thats how bad it was. Playpal meanwhile ended up over $89000 in the negative.

                                          I called and sent an e-mail to the NJ gaming commission i took pictures of the records at Caesars every 10 hands to show them what was happening. They called me back and i sent another e-mail with the record . I never heard back from them after that. I was hoping they would investigate and see how bad they were cheating me and maybe get at least some of my money back . But like i said i never heard from the gaming commission again after that.

                                          That is why i said Caesars destroyed my life.

                                            Wow, 89? Jeez bro.

                                            I'm still processing it.

                                            I'm sorry man.

                                            Days will look up though. Just to put this in perspective for you, A good friend of mine heard his car alarm going off In the middle of the night The car alarm on the new Range Rover that he just bought!

                                            So like any man with a new Range Rover he ran outside to see what was happening and proceeded to get shot 8 times.

                                            He's been in the hospital all week. He literally needs to sell his house and Change States Because even though they Caught the guy He needs to worry about His family. This guy could come back any day Or one of those brothers are cousins.

                                            And this is all just completely random.

                                            So in the end After my rant what I'm saying is just be happy your have your health

                                              Skipper, in my view you did it to yourself. However, if it helps you sleep at night, blame the rigged online casino.

                                                  Yea i am trying to keep positive. There have been deaths in my family recently if you remember our memorial day and Labor day mini trips to our Aunt Rita for the family picnic. I would post from the motel we stayed at. Have not gone since the virus though.She fell down the stairs and never recovered. Then i found out today a client i knew that i had gotten together with a few times( The wife was a great lead source at one point) her husband a client died of covid . When someone you know dies it makes you a bit more able to put things in perspective.

                                                  Your friends sounds like he is lucky to be alive holy crap shot 8 times. Was it a lower caliber gun maybe thats why he got lucky. You work hard to buy a nice car and some jackass has to not only try and steal it but tries to kill you. I hope he is doing Ok.

                                                    The reason i mentioned it was he asked me about Caesars. And yea i know i was stupid and went in there. I do blame myself i never said i did not. But it is not right these casinos have to keep ripping people off especially people like me that lose control. So yea i do blame them too. When a dealer gets BJ or 20 60+ % of the time that is not right. Other then that one total breakdown i have been pretty good. I need to start saving again and get my house fund back .

                                                        He's doing just fine, guy was probably using aluminum range ammunition.

                                                        I've been making the joke said he's been going all around town shooting everyone and wondering why no one's dying! Lol

                                                        The ammo definitely makes a difference gentleman, if you're going to kill someone use the good stuff.

                                                          And I'm sorry for asking captain, as I said earlier I just like reading about stuff like that because it makes me feel like less of a degenerate for the dumb shit that I've done.

                                                          And also it's very entertaining.

                                                          Either way I'm sorry bro but just remember it's just pieces of paper.

                                                          Just a bunch of pieces of paper.

                                                          In 30 years do you think anyone's going to remember if you were in gambling debt or not? Well actually that's kind of dumb because they probably will sorry I'm talking on my ass lol

                                                            I've been making the joke said he's been going all around town shooting everyone and wondering why no one's dying! Lol

                                                            The ammo definitely makes a difference gentleman, if you're going to kill someone use the good stuff.
                                                            This kid was so dumb he got a strap and tried to shoot people and couldn't even be good at that! Hahahhaha

                                                              Is there anyone making money gambling in 2021.

                                                              Everything is much more rigged than it used to be.

                                                                And also it's very entertaining.

                                                                Either way I'm sorry bro but just remember it's just pieces of paper.

                                                                Just a bunch of pieces of paper.

                                                                In 30 years do you think anyone's going to remember if you were in gambling debt or not? Well actually that's kind of dumb because they probably will sorry I'm talking on my ass lol
                                                                No your right noone will remember the amount i lost or even the amount i Won to be honest. Unless it is an insane amount maybe they will remember. If i can just hit the SB bet i should be Ok.

Everything is in writing. I pretty much got tired of the waiting and said " Ok i have been more then patient-if this is not adjusted by months end 3-31-21 we will be cancelling all 3 rooms and just go and use our time share" Then 2 days after that it was done right.
