kobecat Posted May 14, 2016 #3 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Yes unfortunately I heard back straight away too but they advised that as my cruise was only 9 days out, I was too late - has to be 14. Everything is electronic so couldn't really see why but that's the rules. I guess. [emoji16] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peal Posted May 14, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Do you get the shareholder credit in addition to any other cabin credit they are offering? I read the Carnival pdf on their web site and it didn't seem to exclude this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Walt Posted May 14, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) Do you get the shareholder credit in addition to any other cabin credit they are offering? I read the Carnival pdf on their web site and it didn't seem to exclude this. Yes, the shareholder credit is not offset by any other promotions or deals. But you must follow the instructions, especially the timetable, to the letter. It will post as a credit on your shipboard account. It cannot be used for casino play or to pay gratuities, but otherwise is available for anything else. We've used it several times with no hitches or surprises. Here's a link to the details: Click here to view our Shareholder Benefit From the P&O website FAQ's: Q. If I already have on board spending money, would I still be entitled to shareholder benefit? < Back Yes. Shareholder benefit is granted in addition to any on board spending money already given.

kobecat Posted May 16, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Yes, unlike RCL where we never seem to be eligible for shareholder credit, Carnival always give it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipsniffer Posted October 25, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I have used the Shareholder benefit with P&O and other Carnival brands quite a number of times and it has always been a quick and easy process, just need your latest share holding information to e-mail through:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfer2006 Posted February 10, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Hi Fellow Cruisers, I have been reading that most of you have E-mailed your shareholders benefit form to CCL, I phoned early Dec. and was told I had to fax mine in. What was the E-mail you used, I'll try it. Are their any more perks for being a shareholder? Surfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RosieCanberra Posted February 11, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 11, 2017 G'day surfer, I used shareholderbenefit@carnivalaustralia.com for my last one (just two weeks ago). They responded same day. Cheers Rosie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CassCruise Posted March 15, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 15, 2017 You all seem to have been fairly lucky - I have now over the past week and a bit faxed as instructed, phoned 3 times to 2 different numbers I was given, emailed to the address I was given by princess and now phoned again and have been given yet another email address (the one I have just seen Rosie has posted) so am extremely frustrated by the process!!!!! Zero corro has been received except for the wrong email with the stock standard reply stating received my email yada yada yada! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laceytreigh Posted January 24, 2020 #18 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Hi, I'm interested in buying some Carnival shares, but as they're a US company, did you guys need to purchase through a broker or is there a way to do it yourself? Thanks. Tracey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Tracey. I bought my Carnival shares through ANZ Share Trading. They were very helpful. The share price was in the $50+ range, but has now fallen to around US$27. You need to purchase 100 shares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laceytreigh Posted March 9, 2020 #21 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Aus Traveller, You wouldn't be able to tell me the ASX code would you please? I did a search and several different possibilities came up. Carnival Group, Carnival Corp and Carnival PLC. Is it CCL:US? Thanks. Tracey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetp12 Posted March 10, 2020 #22 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hi Tracey It is my understanding that there is Carnival on both the US and the UK market. I purchased my US shares via Stake (they are allowing kiwi's on the Aussie site till the launch in NZ later this month). It took about two days to set up and then another 2 to get the money transferred. It is a great time to be buying the shares - they have halved in value since I bought them but not worried as they will go up + I have enough cruises planned to more than get my money back through OBC. Look for CCL with the picture of a red flag with a blue centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
