Rare dickinson Posted April 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I have already submitted my shareholder info to Princess and have OBC posted for a future cruise. If I were to sell my shares and then rebuy 30 days later (in order to take the loss for tax purposes) will that affect my OBC? I don't see how Princess would know I sold them. Thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunyabidness Posted April 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Princess has no way to match a stock sale to a passenger who previously requested shareholder credit holding those same shares. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare david63 Posted April 1, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 1, 2023 The only requirement is that you hold the minimum 100 shares at the time of applying and that you apply within the specified time-frame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the US there doesn't seem to be a specified time frame. We have already had it applied for a September cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warren buffet Posted April 2, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I would imagine there is a stipulation that people are supposed to own the shares at the time of sailing. technically. they prob could ask to see a statement within 90 days and take the credit off otherwise. in reality it's probably very unlikely they would since they have lots of other work with people experiencing issues on the ship. esp now that i hear the mediallion's are wrongly charging people for drinks when they bought plus or premier. i hear guest services spends a ton of time taking incorrect charges off for a lot of people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kywildcatfanone Posted April 2, 2023 #8 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Nope. If it's applied, you are good to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted April 2, 2023 #9 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Requiring people to hold the stock after the award of the shareholder benefit would violate securities law. If Carnival Corp wanted to tighten up how far in advance you could apply for the benefit, that would be legit, but they’ve actually let the lines go the other direction with people able to apply before the previous written 90-day policy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AE_Collector Posted April 2, 2023 #10 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Used to be they wouldn’t process the request if it was made before final payment deadline. They would ask you to resubmit the request closer to the sailing date. But they don't seem to be doing this now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
