Bin man Posted August 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Well after 30 cruises of which 20 have had shareholder obc granted since proving I own 100 shares on the first one and usually just send them an email to add to next cruise they now are asking me to prove ownership when they already know that . Proof can be share dividend statement are they having a laugh don't they know no dividend has been payed since covid. Or is it operational excuse not happy why make things complicated .If they want the proof ever time then say it before sending email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisemeister2002 Posted August 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I recently purchased 100 Carnival shares. Apparently you have to show proof of ownership at least six weeks prior to a cruise. I bought the shares through Hargreaves Lansdown and they have said they will confirm Carnival (P&O) before I cruise. It is annoying, but then how do they know without proof that you still have the shares as I had 100 some time ago made a couple of hundred on them (Could have been £500, but the wife put me off selling) and as I say have recently purchased 100 as i have a couple of cruises next year and it will be £300 onboard for an outlay of £700 and I will still have the shares and hopefully more OBC. Good luck anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore it and send a new email linked to your previous email for your previous cruise. Worked for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
