Review summary

Will never cruise with MSC again. Service was terrible. They charged my account 8 times instead of one. Overcharged $11,314, and they said that we need to wait a minimum of 2 billing cycles to get a refund. They even told us that some customers have to wait 4 months for their refund. They’re doing fraudulent transactions using their customers’ money. They didn’t even compensated us for using our money , for all the stress they caused us, and for all the time that we spent on the phone trying to recover our money. Even emailed some executives, and called several times, but our requests were ignored all the time. They finally said they could only compensate us with a $50 credit, but they didn’t even gave us $50, they actually removed a $100 cabin credit that was part of our reservation promotion. Really bad service.

Personnel were not the friendliest. Golf Cart driver Gerard was extremely rude to guest. He had a really bad attitude and almost scream at an Asian lady stating that she needed to get out of his cart and that she could not stay riding around….

Buffets were closed all days on the island. Just one day they offered food trucks, other two days nothing at all. I feel this was awful

I was on that same cruise my husband and I and had a wonderful time. Had no problem at all and found everyone to be so kind and helpful. Sorry you had such a bad time. We even re booked going again this weekend. So excited. Took advantage of the great sale for Cyber Monday!!!😀🛳️⚓️🚢

We sailed MSC Seaside shortly after it was available and before Covid. Had a great time! Paid restaurants were amazing and room service pizza was the best pizza I ever had!!

People either love or hate MSC. I cruised twice with MSC this year and had a great experience on both the Meraviglia and Divina.
