GloriaF Posted April 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Where is the CCL stock OBC shown in a booking? I'm signed into my booking and looking in the Cruise Personalizer: Payments and Credits. I see other OBC, but not the shareholders benefit OBC. I filed a while back, so there has been time for it to be processed. It seems like I remember that they will not show in my booking, but will be on my folio onboard. It's been too long since I've cruised! Edited April 12, 2022 by GloriaF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Flyer Posted April 12, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 12, 2022 On the Cruise Personalizer by selecting Payments it goes to the Payments & Credits page showing SOBC & other credits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloriaF Posted April 12, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Thank you both for answers! I'll follow directions and see if it has been applied yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiamo Posted April 12, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 12, 2022 It all depends on how busy they are at the current time. I have seen it applied in less than 24 hours, and then it was taking them upwards of 3 weeks to apply the credit. Also had them send me an email saying to not apply for a Shareholder OBC before 3 months before the cruise date, and then them applying the OBC for our cruise in Sept at the same time. (confused.. I sure was). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never even heard of them sending an Email back to the customer like that. I've had a number of the requests applied very early, we even have one, applied many months ago, for a Feb 2023 cruise. The last one I applied for, a few weeks ago for a new Alaska trip in August, didn't get applied right away, so I re-submitted the same Email twice more until it finally went through.

Yep, was surprised to get that email, all of my prior credits were granted quite quickly (hours or 1 or 2 days). I suspect it was during a time they were way behind (in January) and trying to catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobandLizM Posted May 12, 2022 #16 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Applied for Share benefit for two separate cruises in December 2022 last week, I just wanted to get out of the way. I have applied for approximately 9 other cruise benefits with Princess in advance, most times they say they will add to the diary and apply within a 3 month window or they just apply immediately. I was quite surprised to see the replay that I had from Pre-Cruise Guest Relations Representative, it asked me to apply later in order to ensure I was still a holder of the shares. “We are currently only applying Shareholder benefits to cruises up to and including the 31st July 2022, I am sure you can appreciate we cannot apply these credits too far in advance as shareholders may no longer be entitled to them at the time of sailing.” I found this not to be particularly trusting and replied: No problem, I will submit later in year. But I do think that Princess should have more confidence in your shareholders keeping hold of their shares. I would like to think as a shareholder that I believe in your company and your product and therefore would retain my shares. I will now wait out, and hope they will have the necessary resources available, when the time is close enough that they can trust me not to sell them before I get on board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess also prevents you from ordering two drinks at a time with the princess drink package to reduce the risk of people buying one package and sharing it. Princess also requires you to pay for specialty dining and excursions when you book them to reduce the risk of people overbooking for flexibility and then cancelling what they don't intend to keep. Princess also requires you put a credit card on file rather than settling your tab at the end of a cruise. I mean the list can go on and on. Fraud totally happens, ALL THE TIME, and cruise lines just like any company have policies designed to prevent abuse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The benefit is applicable on sailings through July 31, 2023 aboard the brands listed below. Certain restrictions apply. Applications to receive these benefits should be made at least three weeks prior to cruise departure date. It's more a case of can they offer it more than anything else. https://www.carnivalcorp.com/static-files/50351a91-4dc0-4f6b-bfec-684647e6129f Edited May 12, 2022 by johnnylikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrizl Posted May 13, 2022 #23 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Just returned from a 25 day Transatlantic Cruise on the Enchanted. Fares included drink package, gratuities and internet. Had my $250 shareholder OBC (non refundable). Ship had no internet for first 2 weeks so received $140 refundable credit. Naturally, for specialty restaurant booking, charges were made against the refundable credits. Was not allowed to use my OBC to pay for both my husband and my dinners. Each was charged against our own OBC. (refundable of course) Was also not permitted to book an excursion for the both of us using my shareholder credits.....can only use them for myself. Ended up buying some jewelry since not much left to use $250 OBC on and did not want it to go to waste. Would so much rather have used it towards excursions.

I have cruised with others, linked our billing account, paid for kids excursions / specialty dinner / wifi with my OBC, and never had an issue doing so as recently as 2019. I have only sailed solo in 2021 & 2022 to date so just trying to find out if this a new change 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In April 2022 I used it to pay for some friends specialty dining. I simply gave my medallion and had things charged to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
