Rare Eli_6 Posted July 12, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I have a cruise scheduled August 7th. I emailed them my information and proof of ownership to the applicable email address two weeks ago. Then, as a back up, I also mailed CCL my information and proof of owning more than 100 shares. For those of you who have done this before, how long does it typically take for that OBC to be applied?

Call Carnival and ask for Quest Relations, they will help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LHARTWICK Posted July 12, 2021 #5 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I'm waiting on a response from them as well. It's been 2+ weeks since I submitted my shareholder information. I'm going to give it another day or so, and then resubmit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect they are pretty busy with these requests right now. But I guess that's a good thing - means people are cruising. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N7786W Flyer Posted July 12, 2021 #8 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I'm sure they are busy...however, when they finally did respond, they made a mistake on one of our cruises and failed to give us any OBC. I immediately emailed them back and they responded within the hour with a correction. I was surprised I didn't have to wait for days/weeks for the correction to arrive.

LHARTWICK Posted July 15, 2021 #10 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I've just received a response to my shareholder OBC request: submitted request 6/25, so 3 weeks response time. However, it was denied - said our names weren't on the statement. Our names were clearly on the statement at the top in all caps. So I'm resubmitting with our names - and other required info - highlighted in bright yellow this time. They are probably overwhelmed with requests and just aren't taking the time to look at them close enough. So I'll wait another 3 weeks - hopefully I'll get an approval this time. 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed all of my booking numbers/ship names/sail dates within the email and included a photo of my statement showing my name, statement date and carnival shares. I marked out all other info on the statement. I emailed my info on 6/27 and received a response yesterday, 7/16. They replied to my email and sent updated confirmations showing the OBC. They approved 3 out of 5 bookings through May ‘22, was told to resubmit my info for Nov ‘22 and Dec ‘22 cruises.

Otherwise, your list is fine except add also the name of the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Banditswife Posted July 19, 2021 #23 Share Posted July 19, 2021 It took about 2.5 weeks for them to send an email stating we hadn't sent in our brokerage statement. I know we faxed it, but it must have gotten lost or whatever. So using their email, I replied with an attachment of the brokerage statement. We got a pretty immediate response to that email with credit added to our OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunonfire Posted July 20, 2021 #24 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I faxed my paperwork on July 15th and I just received an email from Carnival confirming the shareholder benefit. In the email it states Please note this will not appear on your cruise manager however it will reflect on your revised guest confirmation listed under the Itemized Charges as On Board Credits.

hayesktrm Posted July 20, 2021 #25 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I always send it to my PVP and she takes care of it quickly. I submitted mine to her on July 13th and it just came a few minutes ago with the $100 additional OBC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
