    yes I agree, but they should inform their readers that this is happening. Otherwise they are taking people's money under false pretense.

    I know it's unlikely, but if there's anyone who is able to book on-line and isn't going to use it can they please send me a pm with the details. I would be very grateful.
  • Thursdays password is CLUB. So all 5 in order are:

    BALL CASE HOME SAND CLUB

    I got the online booking invite and through mailing them a few queries found out the site 'should' be live as of midnight tonight. Tried it at 11.30 (having called a local 24hr garage to ask if they'd had the following days papers delivered, and getting the assistant to tell me tomorrows password :rotfl: ) got in, got booked for a Fri - Mon, then went back in and booked a mon to fri to the same place to give me a weeks holiday.

    I would have shared my personal booking number now I've used it (as it obviously lets you use it more than once) but it pre-fills all my name, address and contact numbers so it wouldn't be any use to anyone else. But at least I got the password on quick for any other online bookers!
  • Something else. Quite a lot of the bigger/better parks are only available either m-f OR f-m but not both. So, If you are applying by post it's worth checking the dates and parks available at the website https://www.ukholidaysinthesun.co.uk as the parks available do all change depending which dates you choose. That way at least you'll know the choices you give are possible so increase your chances. Use the column on the left to indicate thenumber in your party, then click book now. It'll let you mess around with dates/parks but you'll only be able to move on to booking if you've had the personal number sent to you on the back page of a priority booking form. ;)

    Is the personal number same as ref number on the previous booking form? I have a booking for Oct from the earlier promotion, I wonder if that would work?

    Looking at the choices though of what is available for when I want I won't be going anywhere!

    Worth a try I'd think. My number was in the format 1234567/123 so if it looks like that I'd presume it would work.

    Must've been loads of online invites as there are a lot fewer choices now than there were at 11.30pm last night when I booked mine.

    i don't have the ref from my previous priority booking form, but i have the holiday ref for the holiday i booked and it's not the same format, it's only 6 numbers long :-(

    also this time it looks like you can only book for up to 6 people, we usually have 8 people in a 3 roomed van

    the availability is looking rubbish now, i tried 4 or 5 dates for when school's broken up and the availability was awful, nowhere we're after. the only date with a proper choice of parks is 1st september, for those whose kids don't go back until the tues/wed they could book for fri-mon.

    See this site is no longer accessible unless you have the priority booking reference...glad I checked availability this morning ;)
    This site has saved me a fortune :money: ...it's also cost me a fortune! :doh:

    .....Anyone got a spare reference number for a poor, underpaid apprentice engineer and his overworked property trainee girlfriend saving for their first house? :)
    Bet match total as of 04/10 = God Knows + About £1000 Quidco. Time for Mrs Huddsta to have a crack!!!
