Theft of your card number may have taken place in one of the ports you made purchases in if you used that card.Carnival also has the bad habit of placing holds far in excess of the amount of any on board purchases and it may take months to get them to clear the holds. This is what caused my card to be rejected when I tried to pay for a hotel room while I had to wait until the following day for my flight. I think this is becoming a much more frequent occurrence on all cruise lines.
