Premier Plus rooms
Hi, Was wondering if anyone has stayed in the Premier Inn Plus rooms ? If so did you think it was worth the extra money ? I'm looking to book a 6 night stay on the south coast in September and think it was around £10-£15 extra per night for the Premier Plus rooms. Thanks

Airbnb Rip Off
Last week I requested a 3 day booking on Airbnb but it was immediately rejected by the host. Airbnb took the full booking fee from my debit card on making the request. It is 7 days and I still haven't received the refund. The link " Track you Refund " doesn't work. It just goes to 404 Error. I have heard Airbnb can keep…

Airbnb refund to original payment method issue
Hi all- I’ll try to keep this concise… I booked a 4 night stay with airbnb in june, paid for in part by using gift cards and part by credit card- however I left after 1 night due to excessive road noise throughout the night. The host agreed to 75% refund, which airbnb took care of, however they refunded me the full 75% in…

I haven't taken them on a holiday myself before, they're 15 and 12. Not sure whether to go for 2 nights or 3 nights in a caravan. Is it worth staying an extra day?

I booked a property in Kingston Upon Thames for 1 night but upon arrival it was apparent that this was a scam. I paid £212.68 for the booking but was unable to contact the accommodation owner. I have e-mailed booking.com on 11 occasions plus contacted them via telephone 3 times but they just keep fobbing me off. They…

Splitting bills in restaurants / drinking rounds
My father and his girlfriend have an odd attitude to money, claiming to be skint while going on 5 holidays a year and buying a £400k house in cash. They are the tightest people I know. That's up to them, but they don't show the same respect for money in their dealings with others. This has come to be particularly annoying…

Money Moral Dilemma: Should we change the way we split holiday costs now my partner has passed away?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... My partner passed away last year. Before then, we regularly went away with friends and would split the cost of the holiday between us - for example, if a holiday home rental cost £500, we would split it £250 per couple. My friends and I are now looking at going away this…

ID Checks
I have a holiday booked with Parkdean which I do every year. No problems until this year. Apparently now they want to carry out ID checks. Not sure why a UK holiday requires this. Some people who book UK holidays don't think they don't need a passport that's probably why they holiday in the UK in the first place. Parkdean…

We have a young family member and his girlfriend (not immediate family) coming to take care of the house, garden and pets while we are on holiday for 2 weeks later this month.

Warner Leisure Hotels
I'm hoping someone on this forum can help me. I am a regular visitor to Warner Leisure Hotels and have always enjoyed them, until now. There has always been a problem with their customer service centre (they never seem to know what they're doing). However after a recent visit which was dreadful, I have been trying to make…

Travelling on London Tube
I'm taking my daughter who is 11, to London for 2 days Friday and Saturday. I've only ever used the underground when she was free to travel, and we could use the larger turnstile together. I'm finding the TFL website a bit confusing. We're staying zone 1, but will need to travel into zone 3 on the Friday. Is it worth…
