cruise2relax Posted July 7, 2009 #26 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I know you stated that the shareholder benefit may conflict with some OBCs. Do you happen to know if it conflicts with either the FCC or purchased credit from the Princess Credit Card? Thanks for your helpful information.

You can get both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retirement Posted July 7, 2009 #31 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Does anyone know if Princess gives you a refund of any unused OBC in your account? If you don't spend your OBC, do you lose it?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted July 7, 2009 #32 Share Posted July 7, 2009 How will I know that the credit has been applied once I'm onboard? Ask the Purser's Desk for a copy of your onboard folio; there will be a credit labelled as the shareholder benefit. Not quite. There is a line labeled "CC-COMPANY CR COMPANY CR" The amount of credit on this line includes: Stockholder credit OBC from use of a FCC OBC from a travel agent The individual amounts are not given, just a total.

DanJ Posted July 7, 2009 #34 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Does anyone know if Princess gives you a refund of any unused OBC in your account? If you don't spend your OBC, do you lose it?:confused: I believe it depends on the origin of the OBC. I thinkuUnused TA or gifted OBC gets refunded. Not sure how they prioritize the drawdown of a credit balance if you have a future booking credit, a shareholder credit, your TA gives you a credit and family members chip in and buy you a credit. If you had all those things, and they added to $500, and you spend $400, I don't know which credit they consider the remaining $100 to be, and if it's refundable or not.

Thank you! I could not, for the life of me, find any of my folios from the last trip. After finding them in the least-likely place, I note that I have two CC lines, one in the amount of the Shareholder OBC and one in an amount I won in the Twitter-based contest after the Golden drydock.

FLACRUISER99 Posted July 7, 2009 #37 Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) No you would have to withdraw it through Casino credits and then cash them in. :DNot always true.

Rare English Tim Posted July 7, 2009 #39 Share Posted July 7, 2009 No you would have to withdraw it through Casino credits and then cash them in. :D My wife was quite alarmed when I said I would open a casino account and transfer several hundred dollars to it, 'til I explained the benefit!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLACRUISER99 Posted July 7, 2009 #40 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I would not count on a check, once you are off your SOL. :)They did give you a credit slip on your Credit Card onboard, why they sent a check is beyond me. So you could have contacted your CC company. The last day in the morning they made an announcement that anyone not claiming their credit that it would have be forfeited to the Government.

Pia1913 Posted July 7, 2009 #50 Share Posted July 7, 2009 The lowest Carnival stock closed was $15.02 on November 20, 2008The lowest it traded was $14.85 on November 21, 2008 And somewhere back in 2007 (I think) we sold off some at over $50. Not a bad return for an original price of $18 and all the extra benefits we're still getting today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
