Cash Access Signs Carnival Cruise Lines!
Thus spake Ray Goldenberg :
Hi Everyone, I received this press release from Global Cash Access and thought it would be of interest. If you have missed any of my news' postings, they are available on my web site. GCA makes (pardon the expression) a boat load of money. They charge a fee AND a per centage for each transaction. I think the fee is usually around $5.00 and the cut is 5%. -- dillon Could have been is in the past Could be is in the future There is only the now |

Cash Access Signs Carnival Cruise Lines! TOO EASY!
This feature was available on my recent Carnival Liberty cruise. It was
advertised continuously on the ships in cabin TV system as how to use it. Simply you just place your Sail & Sign card into slot machines, press a few buttons and EUREKA...you can gamble cashless with the charges you bet posting right to your shipboard account. Ditto with payouts you can have your winnings credited to your account as well without having to cash out and the casino pay you upfront. IMO too easy esp. for people that bet more than they should!
