    should have nothing to worry about. Park are sound as far as i know, and remember! its FAREPAK thats gone bust not the voucher company.

    so even if the voucher company you ordered from via Park went bust, Park themselves havnt and therefor you would just get alternatives.

    this happened to my family earlier this year when choices vouchers went bust, and the company(i think it was family hampers)swapped all choices vouchers for the new "general" voucher.

    I am a kleeneze agent and have read about this all day. Findel have bought the group of companies including kleeneze,IWWOT,kitbag,cabochun etc but not farepak! so looks good from my point of view, but any farepak customers/agents need to contact them to find where they stand. good luck x
