You don't need a form. You need to give them your full name, your booking #, ship name and sail date along with a copy of something showing you own shares. You can fax, email or snail mail. I emailed that info and my broker confirm this morning and have the credits on my three upcoming cruises already. I guess Princess can do some things right!

Brickwood Posted October 4, 2022 #27 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Also, remember to redact your account number. Instructions, emails, fax #s and addresses can be found by searching "CCL Shareholder benefit" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There might be a better chance of it slipping through if they don't see both side by side. Thank you for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted October 6, 2022 #30 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Apparently the Shareholder Credit can't be used to book excursions in advance. I was going to use our paltry $400 OBC to book a couple of excursions and then pay the $40 or so "extra" with a credit card. I tried to book the first one and it said I had about $40 due on the credit card. Obviously it was only using the $150 OBC that isn't from Shareholder credit. What a crock. Obviously I can wait until boarding to book the second excursion but there's no guarantee it will still be available or that the price won't go up. I'm actually pretty surprised that the Shareholder OBC wouldn't be available in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickwood Posted October 6, 2022 #32 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) I just tried and was able to use mine though there is a catch in that I think the system looks at onboard credit individually for each person you reserve for. I have $100 Shareholder OBC in my name. My DH has a residual left in his name after previous bookings, (though not shareholder OBC). So, the balance for mewas zero but the balance for him was the difference between the cost of the excursion and what he had leftover in his name. This meant we'd have to pay some for his excursion but I'd still have a balance to use. If this seems to be the issue for you as well, maybe you can call (or chat) and have it applied the way you want it done.

Thrak Posted October 6, 2022 #33 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Tried Live Chat. First one was dropped by Princess after a short while. Second one said that it is impossible to combine my wife's OBC with mine. This is incorrect. Guess I will need to call and put up with the hold time if I want this done. Princess has sooooooooo many reps who have no clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted October 6, 2022 #34 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Got tired of being on hold with Princess. Sent a note to my TA asking if he can get this fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have not received the credit. I also applied on the same day for a HAL cruise I have in February and received the credit two days later. I’m new to Princess, so I am just wondering if they normally take this long or should I re-submit? I submitted mine yesterday afternoon. This morning the $250 was already posted to my cruise. The email I received confirming the submission said up to 21 days, so I was surprised it only took overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbypiggy Posted October 7, 2022 #36 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Yesterday I sent an email to apply for the Stockholder OBC. In less than 10 minutes, I received an email, subject line: your booking confirmation. Opened the email and noticed the stockholder OBC already showing on the new booking confirmation. That is super fast!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capriccio Posted October 7, 2022 #38 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) I just had the same experience as recent posters. I submitted my email with two cruises on it (April 2023 and July 2023) right after midnight, received the 'possibly within 21 days' automated reply, and went to bed. I didn't even bother to look this morning until about 9 am and both cruises showed the credits ($250 and $100). That's 50% of the price I paid for the stock! Plus we already have an April 2024 cruise booked that will hopefully receive a $250 credit if Princess continues the program after July 2023.

CruisinCouple2010 Posted October 7, 2022 #39 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We also requested shareholder credit today for a few upcoming cruises and they were processed in less than 10 minutes. Good job Princess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruzDayz Posted October 7, 2022 #41 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I sent them an email from all of us at Cruise Critic thanking them for the fast response time and I got the same 21 day email back. Haha. We do appreciate them. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Gal Posted October 8, 2022 #42 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thanks for all your helpful information. We are sailing on Cunard's Queen Elizabeth in February and yesterday I followed your advice and sent off an email to the Cunard address for Carnival Shares OBC. This morning there was an email from Cunard stating that the Share OBC has gone into our account. Just so easy and well worth the small amount we paid out for the shares.

afg8r Posted October 10, 2022 #44 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Just did it for Alaska in June/July. Look up the Carnival Corporation & PLC Shareholder benefit request form.
