New Membership Criteria Of The Euro Disney Shareholders Club Announced

[cwis]

Just so you know, people on French forums went banana about this. Some have called Shareholders Club who confirmed those that currently are member will not need to buy new shares AS LONG as renewal is performed from within a +/-60 days window. Those who renew outside this window, and new members, will need to qualify the 1000 shares.

Following yesterday’s announcement by the Shareholders Club increaseing the number of shares required for NEW applicants are required to hold to join the Club.

A statement has been released today to clarify the position for existing members.


The Shareholders club confirms that these new applicable general conditions from March 10th, 2016 concern only the new members (never be members of the Club before this date) who have to hold 1000 shares minimum.

The former members of the Club (until March 9th, 2016) are not impacted by these new conditions if they make the renewal of their card at the latest in 60 days following its expiration date.

The new cards validity will be of 5 years for all the Club members.

The current cards (valid until 2017 or 2018) remain valid up to the expiration date and will not be reproduced with the 5-year term.

This new 5-year term will be applicable only during the renewal and according to your date of membership (so with 5 or 100 or 1000 shares)

Attention: the former members of the Club (before March 10th, 2016) will see applying the new criteria of 1000 shares if they do not make by their renewal in 60 days after the expiration date.

The renewal, according the current general conditions, is not automatic and remains a personal move from the member.

To sum up for a renewal:

– If you are a member before October 1st, 2005 : hold a minimum of 5 shares

– If you are a member between October 1st, 2005 and March 9th, 2016 : hold a minimum of 100 shares

– If you are a member since March 10th, 2016 : hold a minimum of 1000 shares

I was glad to see the new email today - clearly they have been inundated. Not surprising really, given how badly written that PR was. It would be better to get it right first time than have to release again surely - it wasn't even a language barrier issue, it was just poorly explained!

We can all breathe a sigh of relief right now. However, I do wonder whether the ultimate membership goal is 1000 shares in years to come....

Today's email was a lot better, if they had sent that yesterday it would have saved everyone time and concern. I've set my phone's calendar to remind me to renew 60 days before my membership's expiry.

How much is it to buy Disneyland Paris shares?

Do you get any perks if you are a shareholder?

You get 15% discount in the shops and table service restaurants in Disney and 10% discount Disney stores in Europe. Discount off packages but the deals offered without are better.

Invites to special events or new rides. Get to use Salon Mickey which is a shareholders lounge and get a soft drink and pastry in the mornings.

It will cost almost £1000 to join now as need 1000 shares which are currently €1.24 a share plus commission to buy

Just to update, got my new card and it is valid for 5 years even though I renewed just before announcement. Only took just under 2 weeks to receive too

I sent my renew form last night around midnight and got confirmation email just after 8 this morning... never had such a quick replay... very impressive ... wonder is the amount of the member went really down after all these changes...
