    I know i've been successful as I had priority booking form and booked online on 11 Jan and money was taken not long after. I personally was just getting nervous at the lack of paperwork!!! Hence the reason I called my park.

    I did not have one of those forms so I am stabbing in the dark at what I get, I just want to know where we are going so I can tell the kids. If I get Butlins Minehead I might be able to turn it into a week with the CC vouchers I have and add an extra few days break on that way. I just hate not knowing but it is only another 20 days to wait I suppose.

    Ooo will they let you add extra days using tesco vouchers? will it be the same accomodation, anyone done it before? sounds ideal and i could do the same. thanks might look in to that.

    Well, I thought I would just ring them and ask to be honest - I've got to call them to book with voucher anyway so, nothing ventured nothing gained. If they can tell me what accomodation I am in then it should be OK - if not then we'll just pack and move to another apartment 4 days later, LOL. That will please the husband no end!!!!

    We have got enough in vouchers to go Gold for a week if we add £200 so it would not a big deal with pay the extra £200 on the Sun holiday and use all vouchers for 4 days in Gold. If that makes sense.
  • We received our updated invoice from Haven today (as we paid the balance last week) and in with it was a leaflet offering to extend our stay to a full 7 nights and they are only charging £9.50 each + extra service and passes - it says if you do extend then they will upgrade your caravan free of charge - it also says that I have 7 days from receipt of letter to do it, and it says you cannot extend into 6/4,10/4,13/4,1/5,22/5,25/5.
