Euro Disney S.C.A. (EDL) Shares

CafeFantasia · September 23, 2011, 12:34:34 PM

So, if someone spent £80 to buy 20 shares of Euro Disney, they'd have free access to the Shareholders Club, without having to pay the administration fee every 2 years... right? And how long would that last for? I mean, would they then get unlimited access to Salon Mickey forever until they change the rules?

i'm not sure if you're still focussing on Salon Mickey for a reason here Alan, as others have said there are many other advantages of being in the shareholders club. But yes, with 20 shares you pay nothing else to be a member of the shareholders club, so that gives you all the club advantages for as long as you hold the shares. You have access to Salon Mickey up to 5 times every month, for you and 4 members of your family, or you and 3 friends.

@Elaine

That actually sounds pretty cool. Like you said, you get discounts on food and merchandise, so it's not all about Salon Mickey.

Can you buy shares jointly, in two peoples' names, to spread the cost? Or do the 20 shares have to be in one person's name only?

as far as I'm aware the contract note for the shares has to be in one person's name, but you could always call the shareholders club and ask, they're very helpful and prompt with their replies in my experience.

Ok, so I have another question about the Shareholders Club.

If you're in the parks with a friend, and you have your Shareholders Club card with you, can you use it to get your friend a 15% discount on any merchandise they buy? Or can the Shareholders Club card only be used for things you buy, in your name?

You can also use your shareholders club card in the Disney store in England, we've always been able to. You can get your friend a discount if you have your card. You must be with him or her.

CafeFantasia · September 24, 2011, 02:48:48 PM

Right, so as long as you're there in person, with your Shareholders Club card, you can get everyone you're with discounts on merchandise?

ed-uk · September 24, 2011, 03:51:39 PM

i've only tried it for one other person, if there's ten in your group I don't know, but you can always ask.

I've certainly done this with a party of 6, including myself. It works with merchandise and also with buffet/table service meals, as long as you're all paying on the one bill.

All on the one bill with one person paying you can get your shareholders' discount for sure. I thought Alan might of ment separate bills.

I guess Disney would interfere if you try to share the discount with 20 or 30 of your classmates.
On the other hand if you manage to collect your friend's money and literally buy all the stuff in your name, noone can say anything against it

BTW the price for 20+ shares shouldn't be a fortune for anyone who visited DLP on a regular basis, should it?
And it pays off soon...

Best regards,
