    Really hope you can salvage something from this win - but on the slightly brighter side, you could have already booked the accommodation & be looking at losing money on that.
    Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out :smiley:
  • Just wondering, when i won my flights, it had jjust been advertised as 2 business class flights, but the company they were gonna use had gone bust inbetween them starting the comp and the comp ending.

    If the comp is run by gatwick airport, i would suggest the very least they should give you is a gesture of goodwill.

    Maybe one of the papers might be interested if there is lots of publicity about zoom at the moment, If you don't get a satisfactory response when you have heard back from isp then it might be worth naming and shaming them.

    just a thought


    Hope it all works out for you, keeping fingers crossed
