Appreciate your post from a few days ago with the info on how to contact Stockperks, saving for future reference/need.

One area that is streamlined for me is that once the proof is accepted, you don't have to keep uploading. If you have another cruise before July (or whenever the current period expires), you just provide the ship and sail date. Even if on another Carnival brand like Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryZ Posted January 18 #103 Share Posted January 18 Not a huge fan of this but I paired my etrade account with it because Carnival emailed me back saying I have to use it. If it's hacked, I'll just change my etrade account password. I get notifications for anything that happens with my account so I can easily just shut it down. It's like how just yesterday someone used one of my credit cards that is only used to pay paramount monthly, just so the card stays active. So they shut it down and I'll have a new one in a few days. I already have a new number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was going to give them a password, I would have changed it first, and later changed it back. For others, try putting Fidelity as your brokerage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a ton of cruises booked with Carnival. Most of them the shareholder obc will be denied because they are basically free cruises. But a few are Ultras, which for me, I have to pay towards. So I guess I will see how it goes with this new system. If they deny for everything, I'll dump the stock as a loss. Plaid has not proven to be insecure, so I'm good with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So process for me took from Friday to following Thursday. Interestingly though we “may” not even be on our Sunday January 21 cruise as husband is having Emergency Gallbladder Surgery, so for the first time in 40+ cruises Travel Insurance here I come.

There it will tell you the status of your filing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcvtmom Posted January 22 #109 Share Posted January 22 @canes20, that's precisely what I've done. Perks...Carnival Corp...Carnival Cruise Line...but it won't let me click the "redeem" tab.

MaryZ Posted January 23 #113 Share Posted January 23 Mine worked. The two free casino cruises were invalidated for the credit The cruise that is still a casino cruise, but it's an Ultra so for us to have a balcony, we pay about $500 each for it to chose the balcony we wanted. The stock credit is on that one. The rest of of the year our cruises are free, so I won't even bother with the stock credit. For 2025, we have two that the offer is a little different so we pay about $300 each for a balcony, so I'll give that a try when we get closer to the end of this year.

Is the part about gratuities new? On our cruises the Stockholder OBC was applied to gratuities as well. Did you find out if the OBC can still be used towards gratuities? We were able to use the OBC towards gratuities as late as Dec 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I looked, there was no way to do it w/o the app, but you could try eusbmitting to Stockperks via their email. I haven't had to use them yet, as mine were approved the old way before Stockperks. So my next submission will be after the vote in a couple months. If you find out, please let us know.

okcrunner18 Posted January 24 #117 Share Posted January 24 I'm still stuck with the greyed out Redeem Perk button after they verified my share ownership. Haven't received a response from StockPerks or Carnival about how to get past this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just accept or reject ownership of the stock and forward that onto the cruise line. I think you need to contact Carnival to verify what the OBC is for. Guess I am losing my mind. Talked to my PVP and the OBC I have is from stockholder ownership. I would have lost everything on a bet because I really do not remember sending in the email to get the credit the old way, thought what I had was a booking perk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1GaPeach Posted January 24 #120 Share Posted January 24 Apparently I am in the same stockperks boat of verified stock, greyed out redeem perk button and no response from Stockperks yet as to how to access my perk.

In the past I have heard of the credit being applied to a cruise without being specifically applied for. I guess an agent could have been trying to save time and keystrokes?

Though this morning I got email from Stockperks saying the confirmed my ownership of Carnival stock. Went back to app...hit the Green redeem perk button, filled in the sailing info...now waiting for Carnival email, though the app did yell at me saying I'm within 4 weeks of sailing, but they'll work hard to get my OBC added to my sailing...great.
