On Board Credit for Stockholders?

[dpfred]

I was told that if you owned 100 shares or more of stock in Carnival that you were given $100 on board credit. Is that still true and if so what is the proof of ownership?

Thanks,

What is a share of Carnival going for? I only own investments through a company and have never directly purchased but am interested in this. I would think that this company would do well.
