RjayB Posted October 24, 2008 #326 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Ok it's about to drop under $26 (2pm Friday), and I want in. Does anyone know if Scottrade is fast enough to finalize before the end of the day today? Are there any online brokers that can do it that quickly?

RjayB Posted October 24, 2008 #328 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Thanks...it looks like it might end the day up around $27. Apparently this morning it was as low as $25.47. As crazy as things were today, I guess I will wait til Monday. Good luck to everyone on this wild and wacky roller coaster!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruise365 24/7 Posted October 25, 2008 #337 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Buy Gold.;) Oh God, not another gold bug. Gold does not pay dividends, nor does it have earnings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lharry Posted October 26, 2008 #338 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I still haven't figured out how to tell if Carnival has given us our OBC yet. How can I tell, other than calling them? Is it supposed to say something about it on the on-line docs? If so, I don't see our credit. Or should I look someplace else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look on page 6 of your my documents .pdf you will find a break down of your cruise charges, and then below the total, would show an OBC once it has been credited.

tha sista Posted October 26, 2008 #342 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I have edocs however I am booked on a group cruise. My OBC doesn't show up on my edocs..had to have the TA send in my proof of stock ownership as carnival wouldn't accept it from me AND had to have the TA call to make sure its applied! Carnival hasn't been very accomodating when booked on a group cruise, but its taken care of now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susan123 Posted October 26, 2008 #343 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I mailed proof of owning 100 shares of Carnival stock about a month ago, and when it didn't show up as OBC, I took a copy of proof of ownership with me last week on my Victory cruise. No one at the Purser's desk had ever heard of gettting OBC for stock, and after talking to 4 different people, I gave up on getting the credit. We just got back last night, but Monday I will be on the phone trying to find out what is going on. One lady at the Purser's desk told me they stopped giving credit last year.....after she claimed she had never heard of it?? It's only $50 since this was a 5-day cruise, but next year I have a 7-day cruise booked that should give me $100 OBC. Aside from the money, it makes me angry that the staff was so clueless and difficult to deal with over the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VolzCruiser Posted October 27, 2008 #346 Share Posted October 27, 2008 It might be easier to keep track of if you book mark it. That way you don't have to search for it when you are needing info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lharry Posted October 27, 2008 #348 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Don't expect to get an OBC if you qualify for the Inter-Line discount. My PVP failed to tell me this - even though I specifically asked her the question before I purchased my shares. I'm totally bummed now because I was expecting one for both of my upcoming cruises! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
