marvelous35 Posted August 15, 2022 #26 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I have submitted twice for the Shareholder Benefit. The first time was all Royal Caribbean cruises. The second time had 1 Celebrity cruise and more Royal Caribbean cruises. The first time, in January 2022, I did not receive any email confirmation. I did process quickly and on Cruise Planner, my OBC increased. The second time, it also processed quickly. I received a confirmation email for each cruise. And the OBC on Cruise Planner went up right away. Both time, I sent a PDF of my statement from my on-line account. I did not bother to black out any of the sensitive information. And I sent it to the email address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OBC is reflected as OBC normaly would be, but it also has a cover letter specifically calling out the shareholder OBC. If nothing else, you can look at your cruise planner, and you should see that your credit balance has increased by $100. I did get the "guest copy" with the email but I am unable to see anything on my account - the reservation is there but no details, none of the other OBC I am to get with the booking. My TA is checking with Celebrity. Edited August 15, 2022 by Boytjie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dlh015 Posted August 16, 2022 #28 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I was unaware that RCL did this! How much OBC does one get for 100 shares? (My friend has 1000! But he's not cruising right now...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahasamatman Posted September 19, 2022 #31 Share Posted September 19, 2022 How long is it taking to get the OBC these days? Earlier this year, it was credited within two days, but it's been almost two weeks this time around and still nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLMcruise Posted September 20, 2022 #32 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I would resubmit email shareholderbenefit@rccl.com I did the electronic method the first time heard nothing for 2 weeks. Then I emailed and was credited in 2 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miched Posted September 20, 2022 #34 Share Posted September 20, 2022 It says on the form within 3 weeks of sailing. Has anyone anyone submitted prior to 3 weeks and got it approved? Thanks Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCazer Posted September 20, 2022 #36 Share Posted September 20, 2022 On 5/24/2022 at 2:17 PM, TSC said: they still offer stock credit. There is an online form. Whether or not you can stack seems to depend on your luck. If you got OBC from your travel agent, you should still be able to get your stock credit, but if you got some kind of discount from RCCL (like a gambling credited cruise) then they have been saying no. I got the Blue Chip free cruise last month for an Aqua Suite upgrade ($418 for 2 people), and I was able to get my Stock credit. It has already been added to my reservation. So, anyone saying it doesn't work, you should still try it. Mine did! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Submitted with a letter from my broker confirming ownership and a copy of my bookings. One was for August and the other not until April of 2023. When I simply sent my CClub number and a copy of last broker statement never acknowledged. Edited September 20, 2022 by Arizona Wildcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLcruiser2011 Posted September 20, 2022 #39 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I can't figure out where you check your OBC on the website. I click on Manage Reservation, then click on Plan My Cruise. What do you do next to see your OBC? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbiker97 Posted September 20, 2022 #40 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Love/hate relationship with this. Love getting extra OBC. Hate having to submit multiple times. I’m on my 4th try over 2 months (email and web form). Murphy’s law happened on the third try. They let me know they couldn’t apply because the booking number was incorrect. No word on all the other requests. Wish me luck on the 4th request (with a correct booking number). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marieps Posted September 21, 2022 #49 Share Posted September 21, 2022 We booked Reflection within a week of sailing last December and despite applying as soon as the reservation was booked I did not get my OBC. It has been applied to upcoming Equinox and Silhouette cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure I may as well spend it or go in debt because our government will either take it away or forgive it. 💰🤗 Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🚢 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
