Rare Bill Y Posted January 20 #101 Share Posted January 20 30 minutes ago, yorkshirephil said: I always assumed that they had a method of checking. So do I. as I have never before been asked to see certificate. This was bourne out last year when the whole process took less than three and a half hours and looking at the timings must have been done from the UK. In this day and age it would appear feasible for Carnival UK to have access to the Carnival Corp shareholder data base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippa04 Posted January 20 #102 Share Posted January 20 The whole Stockperks app is set up for the American Market and people who hold their shares through a broker. My guess is that michwat encountered someone who doesn't understand the old fashioned process of holding share certificates. As far as I can see the process has worked well for the rest of us. There's always one unfortunate one, as previously suggested have another go or email customer services. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilovemygarden Posted January 20 #103 Share Posted January 20 Has anyone been successful recently applying for obc via Hargreaves Landsdowne recently. I emailed them as usual and had confirmation on the 8th January that they were applying to P and O but haven’t heard any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a request to HL and the response was they were extremely busy with these requests and would deal with them based on order of sailing dates. I decided to go direct and did it via Stockperks!

My shares are held in my ii (Interactive Investor) acccount, and their app does not permit screenprints, and has no download function, that I can find, and even if I could take a screen print of my holdings, my name is not shown and there is no date!!!!

michwat Posted January 20 #107 Share Posted January 20 Update:- I contacted customer service and got an email from Zac asking to send a copy of my share certificate to him. So hopefully it may get resolved. (Apart from the fact that I attached the wrong image initially!!) Michele 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bin man Posted January 23 #108 Share Posted January 23 Upto date on my #93 .Just received email from stockperks saying my £150 obc has been applied .So I am due to pay travel agent balance this weekend so I will check to see if they have updated the invoice. So looks like things work well with this new way of claiming obc once accepted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm142 Posted January 23 #109 Share Posted January 23 Further to my earlier problems Shareperks have come back to me and accepted my OBC request. I do not know which of the two attempts I made to force it through or a message on their app, which worked. Just had confirmation from TA and attached new invoice from P&O showing the OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michwat Posted January 23 #110 Share Posted January 23 Had an email from Zac in customer services to say that my shares have been validated and I can now go on the app and redeem my OBC. He even included some step-by-step instructions on how to do this. Unfortunately when I get to the step that says "press the green redeem button at the bottom", the redeem button is not green but grey and nothing happens, so although I have made some progress, I'm still not there yet! Think I might have to go back to Zac. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My greater annoyance is with this app being so US-centric. Does P&O, Aida, Costa know how they have made life so difficult for their British and European customers?

You're all very lucky, I cannot get the app to function properly, have deleted it and re-loaded it a few times, but now stuck with a message saying it's taking too long and try again. Hoping Zac can sort it out for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slugsta Posted January 24 #122 Share Posted January 24 We* are having problems with the app too, despite 'help'. Zac sent confirmation of the login details but we are still getting an error message. It's a good job we are not onboard until April! *We being OH who nominally owns the shares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kermchem Posted January 25 #123 Share Posted January 25 E-mail this morning from Stockperks, or at least some organisation claiming to be them, saying that their systems have suffered a glitch, and some users have not been able to claim their perks. I wonder when the message is going to get back to Carnival corporate HQ that this organisation they have signed up with are a joke. Unhappy cruiser. Unhappy shareholder.

terrierjohn Posted January 25 #125 Share Posted January 25 I have now downloaded the App onto my tablet, and that has resolved the scrolling problem, which however still exists on my phone. But I am still locked in negotiations with interactive investor to try and get a newer statement than September 2023, in order to meet the 3 month requirement maximum for validating my holding.
