sandancer Posted January 2, 2023 #202 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Didn’t for me. I gave them all the info they needed for our Princess cruise confidently expecting them to deal with the application. What I didn’t realise was that they would hold onto it until they had a group of applications and then send them off in a job lot. My travel agent intervened and we got the green light 48 hours before we left home. For our next cruise I simply applied myself as advised by some of our helpful posters and the OBC was added in around a week. We don’t cruise until March. My advice DIY.

wowzz Posted January 2, 2023 Author #204 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Which is why I always do it myself. Print off my portfolio, hide/tippex all irrelevant data, take a photo and send off my claim. Takes five minutes, plus I have proof of my application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to my experience. Why wait until you’re onboard and when it could be too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_W Posted March 1, 2023 #214 Share Posted March 1, 2023 So you had to book by 28/2/23 for the current shareholder benefits, can’t see anything on the page about extensions, wonder when they will announce if its continuing, or not? I have a cruise booked for May and next March so would be nice to have some extra OBC https://www.carnivalcorp.com/shareholder-information/shareholder-benefit/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aulanis Posted March 1, 2023 #215 Share Posted March 1, 2023 The notice you have posted is from the 2021 annual meeting? The 2022 annual results are just being announced and may contain the extension or amendment. The current one covers until July 2023 so you can claim now for your cruise in May 23 You will just have to wait until the next one is published for your cruise in March24.

ighten Posted October 21, 2023 #220 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Quick ? I use Interactive Investor for my share isa dealings and as we have a few P&O bookings coming up for the first time decided to add carnival. The thing Im curious about is that I only ever get a contract note on this platform and a quarterly statement so how on earth do P&O actually know im still in possession or do they want portfolio screenshots which seem even less proof to me as they have no contract number attached.

I also have my Carnival shares with ii, and I agree their website does not seem to allow you to print off a suitable statement. I have used their secure messaging to request them to send Carnival proof of my ownership, which they do, but they only send them in the last 4-6 weeks before the cruise, which does not leave much time to sort out any potential.problens.

Rare david63 Posted October 21, 2023 #222 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I don't use Interactive Investor but my ISA account gives me a quarterly statement which I send, redacted, and have not had any problems so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
