Bingo pay out

[BecBennett]

If you win one of the bingo games, and don't spend it all on board. How and when do you receive the remaining money?

Thanks

When we won bingo years ago we were told we had to go to guest services to withdraw our winnings before the evening of our last day. Any winnings left or forgotten on your account will be forfeited. They did pay us out in cash of our $600 we won. Make sure to save your bingo purchase ticket.

If it is over a certain amount, they give you cash. And a tax form...
You can apply it to your onboard charges if you like of course, too. My family loves Bingo and is very lucky when they play! DCL is like oh no, not them again! lol.

What if the payout was for like $6,000? Would you want to have that amount of cash on yourself?

We won about $400 on the last day of the first of our back to back cruises to Brisbane last month. We were instructed to take the bingo receipt to guest services at any point before debarkation to have the money payed out. It was very quick and easy. We used some to pay off the current bill then gave the rest back to guest services to put on our account when we reboarded for the next cruise lol.

Good luck with bingo on your cruise.

Considering how rarely they have a jackpot winner for that much I doubt it is a common issue. It happens but rarely to get a coverall win in the allotted numbers for the full jackpot.

Maybe they give you a novelty canvas sack with a big dollar sign on it...

We won and were paid out in cash which we applied to our credit card and passholders so we were walking around with cash.

I won the final end game pot of bingo and it was $10k and it was given in all cash at guest services. It was the last day of the cruise so it went right into the safe and we got off and through customs with no problems. I had to fill out a tax form and got a 1099 in the mail for that tax year. It was very exciting and my husband is happy to come play bingo with me the last game of the cruise now.

I hope it was the ship's safe and not yours, or I wouldn't have slept well the last night
