bigrednole Posted October 9, 2020 #28 Share Posted October 9, 2020 You are a shareholder. You have every right to request it. If RCL does not want to do it, they would temporarily suspend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted October 9, 2020 #29 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I'm looking for some help. We have a cruise booked for Feb. 2021. This will be my first cruise as a shareholder. Can someone please guide me in how the process works to obtain the shareholders OBC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send an e-mail requesting the credit with your name, booking number, ship, sail date and attach a copy of a brokerage statement showing ownership of at least 100 share of RCI stock to..... Shareholderbenefit@rccl.com You can black out anything in the brokerage statement that is none of their concern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, I don't think you are silly for thinking about if your course of action is ethical. I think that is to be commended. In this case, I happen to think using the things Royal decided to offer is ethical. Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disneykins Posted October 10, 2020 #37 Share Posted October 10, 2020 For those who have received the obc for a 2021 or 2022 cruise. Can you sell the shares next month and still have the obc in 2021 or do they check again closer to sail date? Carnival only lets you apply for shareholder benefit a month or 2 before sail date IIRC.

LXA350 Posted October 10, 2020 #38 Share Posted October 10, 2020 It's a benefit, if the situation doesn't allow it for the company they would just enhance it away. This is not about emotions, it's pure business. In return, if you would need their financial support you wouldn't be getting anything from them either an no one at the management will feel bad about it.

This is what their website says: 1. Who is eligible for this benefit? SHOW LESS Any shareholder with an eligible reservation holding a minimum of 100 RCL shares at time of sailing. ____________________________________________________________________________ https://www.rclinvestor.com/contact-us/faqs/shareholder-benefit/ I don't know if they check.

legaljen1969 Posted October 10, 2020 #40 Share Posted October 10, 2020 One way or the other you should get that money- either as your OBC or as a dividend for being a shareholder. I would have to believe your OBC credit would be worth more than your dividend. Take it. You invested. You're getting your return. It's your money anyhow.

molly361 Posted October 10, 2020 #41 Share Posted October 10, 2020 It surprises me that they allow you to claim the credit as far out as they have cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
