JT1962 Posted September 1, 2022 #27 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) I was considering purchasing 100 shares for the onboard credit, but most of my cruises lately have been booked with last minute deals a month or less in advance. If your cruise leaves before they get it approved, do you just lose it? I assume they aren’t going to send me a check after the fact. I think I found the answer to my question on the website. It says it must be submitted four weeks prior to your cruise and cannot be used towards gratuities. I rarely purchase anything on board and planned on using it for gratuities. Sounds like it would not be worth it for me. Edited September 1, 2022 by JT1962 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That rule has been around for a while but as far as I know it has not been followed. 😁 Edited September 3, 2022 by B&J1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I booked a last minute cruise and did not have time to submit the request on-line, I took a copy of the Proof of Shares with me onboard and customer service took a picture of it and sent it off somewhere and it was approved within 24 hours and applied to my account. Worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they process both at the same time, you should be able to see the obc in your Carnival account. #2, I wouldn't trust a fax either. #3, 4 weeks Shareholder benefit page https://www.carnivalcorp.com/static-files/50351a91-4dc0-4f6b-bfec-684647e6129f Thanks for the attachment.

I didn't mail anything. For my proof of stock ownership, I simply logged into my financial company's web portal and took screenshots of my investments with the CCL stock highlighted. Once I had those, I attached those to the body of the email and sent them all in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
