flexsmom Posted September 11, 2013 #203 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I have a question that I don't think has been addressed here, but if I missed it, I apologize in advance! My DH & I have a joint tenancy brokerage account, so we own our stocks jointly and both of our names are on any statements we receive. If we purchase CCL stock into that account, and then we are each separately booked into two different staterooms on the same cruise, would each room be eligible for the OBC? We have to book that way due to our children, and the fine print I've seen so far on terms & conditions indicates the credit is per cabin. Any thoughts?

We have to book that way due to our children, and the fine print I've seen so far on terms & conditions indicates the credit is per cabin. Any thoughts? I would guess that you wouldn't get the credit for two cabins especially if you only had 100 shares of stock. I would think a better idea would be to open another account (in joint tenancy) and buy another 100 shares of stock. Now you have two account numbers with stock. Now one of you can use one account for one cabin and the other can use the second account for the other cabin. Clean, simple and legitimate. BTW, you might want to call Princess and ask them......

satxdiver Posted September 11, 2013 #205 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I snail mailed our stockholder OBC and it was on our personalizer in a few days. Princess allows only one stockholder OBC per cabin and one per 100 shares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonflyCruiser Posted October 16, 2013 #206 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Am I correct....25 cents a share? We have 2 cruises planned so great dividends no matter what! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehogan Posted October 16, 2013 #207 Share Posted October 16, 2013 The CCL stock purchase has been a great deal for us. While I regret not buying in 2008 (almost did!) we bought right after the Concordia sank when CCL stock dipped. Since then we have received more than $1000 dollars in OBCs, will receive at least $500 in 2014 on two cruises, and we have some dividends and increase in stock value. While we have sailed most of the lines, Princess is our favourite because of the International cafe, Alfredo's and free Internet for Platinum. We were thinking of RCCL stock as well, but they do not allow other OBCs if you use stockholder OBCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFM70 Posted October 16, 2013 #208 Share Posted October 16, 2013 When one sends in the required documentation to prove ownership of the 100 shares of CCL, do you blank out your account number? I am not comfortable sending my account number to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare trbarton Posted October 16, 2013 #209 Share Posted October 16, 2013 When one sends in the required documentation to prove ownership of the 100 shares of CCL, do you blank out your account number? I am not comfortable sending my account number to anyone. My report only shows the last 4 numbers of my account number so I don't worry. I would never show the whole number but would make sure part of the number shows as mine does so Princess doesn't get suspicious. And make sure that you have something that shows your name as the account holder so you don't have the problem that I did. I called this morning and I finally got my credit.

beach_fever_4ever Posted October 17, 2013 #213 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I have seen two FAX numbers : 661-753-0180 and 661-753-0181. Which one is correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwimum Posted October 17, 2013 #214 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I just faxed mine to 661-753-0180, followed it up with a phone call, and OBC posted to account immediately. When calling make sure you have the time you faxed as this is what they use to locate your fax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebJ14 Posted October 17, 2013 #215 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Faxed my request last Wednesday at 10AM ... it was reflected on my Personalizer by mid-afternoon same-day. I think I may resend mine. I faxed it in over a week ago and got a confirmation that the fax went through. Still nothing on Cruise Personalizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare trbarton Posted October 17, 2013 #216 Share Posted October 17, 2013 From my experience if you call them with the date, time & phone number that you used for the fax it will be applied to your account right away. FYI...When I faxed in my papers 2 days ago they would not accept them without something with my name on it that showed that I was the holder of the stock.

grnyel05 Posted October 17, 2013 #217 Share Posted October 17, 2013 This thread was very helpful for getting the OBC applied. I purchased stock this morning and sail tomorrow. I faxed the executed order form which has my name on it with the cruise confirmation number, sail date, and ship name. Followed it up with a call a bit later where they applied the credit within about 2 minutes of me identifying what time I sent the fax. They followed it up with an immediate confirmation email showing my booking with the credit, which was greatly appreciated since I don't have access to the full cruise personalizer this close to the sail date. It was a very painless process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pythian Posted October 18, 2013 Author #221 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Wow... Thanks to everyone who posted questions, answers and general information to this thread. I started it way back in March when the stock OBC was renewed by Carnival, and here it is, mid Oct and over 13,000 views and a couple hundred posts. This is, and remains, a super OBC and it give each of us partial ownership in our cruise line. Sure, it's a 'minor' stake, but the dividends - both yearly and each cruise - really pay off. Again - thanks for the interest and I sure hope many of those reading found value in all the posts. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
