Waiting to see if it gets approved! Tried it on my phone and the Carnival page only shows the the top 3 or 4 cruise lines, depending on which way you access the perks, and the screen point blank refuses to scroll down at all. But anyway my brokers app will not let me do a screenshot, and has no facility to download a statement showing my isa details. So I shall have to continue asking them to e-mail Carnival requesting my shareholder OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranchi Posted January 5 #28 Share Posted January 5 Be interesting to see how this pans out for different proxy holders. In the past I’ve had run ins with HBOS who refused to inform Carnival companies of my holding quoting GDPR (I didn’t believe it for a minute.) Last year I applied though they did automatically apply for a shareholder benefit (non-cruise) for me, so perhaps they have had a change of heart. As we have no cruises within the next 90 days I haven’t broached the subject with them. Last Sept. I sent a screenshot & that was accepted.

Malcolm142 Posted January 5 #29 Share Posted January 5 It does annoy me when companies change something to the inconvenience of customers. I applied for the shareholder OBC four days ago. I have just been advised by email that I should use this Stockperks app. I can not find my share certificate and I'm not sure I even had one as I assume it is held by Equiniti. I have taken a picture of the latest share dividend confirmation (2020). This shows my ref. no. and current address. We'll see what happens, I'm not expecting it to progress smoothly.

Bin man Posted January 5 #30 Share Posted January 5 Think that is the same for me .Held by equinti only have a pdf from 2020 of last dividend payment .How are we going to prove we still own the shares with no dividend been payed no confirmation that we still hold the shares .I have always just emailed them over the last 15 years asking them to once again apply my OBC and they have just done that without even sending any proof just quoted account no, cruise no, ship name and date of sailing and has worked 24 times except once when I had to complain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about entering financial information - I was perplexed when they wanted to know my annual income. But as I can currently only upload a screenshot of my share proof, with everything important blacked out, I am hoping it is safe at this stage. Now I just have to wait and see what happens when it is approved. I have followed this thread with interest as I am due shortly to apply for my benefits for an upcoming cruise. From the response presumably auto that you received I assumed that "shareholderbenefits@carnivalukgroup.com" was no longer been monitored and the only way was via "Stockperks". On Friday I contacted Stockperks and informed them that I have a physical paper certificate and did not do apps. their reply:- "We'll have a desktop version ready in the next month, but in the meantime, can you please forward me the following information by email - reservation details (full name, reservation number, date of sailing, ship name and email address associated with the booking) - an image of proof of Carnival stock ownership (from within the last 3 months) - on the document I need to see your name, the brokerage name, a date and how many CCL shares you own. With that I can get your claim submitted for processing. Thanks so much!" I was about to supply Stockperks with my details but decided before I did this to send my standard email to P&O and await their auto? redirection to Stockperks. My standard email that I have used for years states:- Booking Names Booking Ref Ship Embarkation Date The certificate Number Shareholder Reference I have never been asked to send a scan of the certificate. I assume that Carnival UK has access to Carnival PLC's Shareholder data base in real time. I received the normal auto response. "Thank you for contacting Carnival UK, Shareholder Benefits, please accept this response as confirmation your email has been received." I will keep you updated? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is pretty straightforward, I actually tried it for my Dec cruise and got the attached message which is the same reply I sometimes get when applying by email.

I guess they want to be sure you still hold the stocks closer to the sailing date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bin man Posted January 8 #37 Share Posted January 8 High Sheila 127 .I downloaded the app in readyness for claiming for obc in a month or so time when I have paid the balance .I sent a picture of share certificate as that is the only proof I have from equinti as I have no other letters due to no recent dividend payment .Is that what you did ?

Malcolm142 Posted January 8 #38 Share Posted January 8 I have just had a reply from Stockperks and as I suspected it has not gone well. Don't know what to do next, go back to them, contact P&O shareholder benefit or see if I can get something from Equiniti. I have not had any documentation in the last three months. I now only have 8 weeks to get this sorted. Never had problems getting OBC before Unfortunately, per the validation rules we have from our clients, we had to reject your submission because it was too old. Can you follow the same upload process in the app but with legible recent images of your documentation (from the last 3 months)? These images should show: your name (that matches the Stockperks user name) the brokerage’s name date of the documentation the number of shares you own in companies offering perks via Stockperks On 1/5/2024 at 5:40 PM, Malcolm142 said: It does annoy me when companies change something to the inconvenience of customers.

Hi! I don't have a share certificate so I went into my account with Hargreaves Lansdown, downloaded a PDF copy of my account and redacted (think that's the word) other share information, then uploaded the copy to Stockperks and it has been accepted! Hopefully copy of your share certificate will suffice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majortom10 Posted January 9 #43 Share Posted January 9 Downloaded Stocksperk app the other day filled on details saying I hold Shareholder Certificate. Uploaded a copy of my share certificate and applied. Have now received confirmation that my application has been successful. Very simple process.

Malcolm142 Posted January 9 #44 Share Posted January 9 I have just spoken to Equiniti and a very helpful lady tried to steer me to access my shares but unfortunately it can not be done on line.

I assume that you have your shareholders reference number as that should be on you old dividend voucher? If that is the case that number should let you create an account on the Equiniti shareview site where any details of your investments should be shown.

Don't think this is the last we hear on this subject. Do this shareperks confirm obc applied? Or do P and O do that ? Then we shall hear of people returning off cruises having not received their share obc .Bring back old system why change when it's not broke to save few bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
