Flight changed - cancel airport transfer?

When I booked my holiday months ago I also booked the airport transfers through Travel Republic.

I've since been advised the outward flight time has changed (by just under 12 hours). Travel Republic booked Resort Hoppa for this service and I've been advised it will cost me £20 to change the time. The original total cost of the return transfers was £20.36.

If I leave the current booking as it stands, i.e don't use first part but use return pick-up, and make another booking for the later arrival time (which will work out around £11) am I likely to hit any problems?

    Thanks apt.

    As I made the initial booking through Travel Republic, the Resort Hoppa website does not recognise my email address along with the booking reference so I can't get access to make an amendment.

    Travel Republic site t&c states that I would need to pay them an amendment fee.

    I think I will make another booking nearer the travel date and hope all goes well with the return transfer.

    would it not be worth giving resorthoppa a quick email or phonecall direct to see if anything can be done.
