    Yay, dh finally found a moment to go put the pennies on our prepay card so I've bought us four gift vouchers! We had a fantastic weekend at Chessington last year so we're looking forward to going again, and trying the other parks too. Intended to buy family pass for 4 anyway so have only really saved £20, but £20 is £20 so I'm happy! Shame about the London attractions during August, but we'll just have to make sure we do our day out in London right at the start of the school holidays.
    hey there's no money but we couldn't be happier if we tried
    £2 coin pot - £92!
  • Could someone give me a bit of help please? My son gets high rate disability and I am his carer. I want to buy tickets for him, me and also my daughter, so am I right in thinking that I only need to buy one disabled ticket & 1 individual ticket? Problem is when I click on the site, you can only tick whether you want to buy individual or family, not disabled. I can't even find a contact telephone no on the site to try & ring them to find out how I order a disabled ticket! Anyone, please?

    Hi Sally, i would of thought that a normal individual gift voucher for your disabled son should be ok - theres nothing in the t's & c's that say you cant use that for a disabled entrant.

    ** 50% off valid for Individual and Disabled Merlin Annual Passes purchased online between 1st - 10th January. Not valid with family offers, renewal discounts or with any other promotion.

    The carer pass i believe is issued seperately.
    I usually like to drink my whisky neat :cool2:

    hi

    is anyone having problems buying this on line ? have tried through the chessington site and also the madame tusauds site and each says it has not been able to collect money due to a technical fault - there is credit available on my card for sure and i am using a mastercard credit card

    dont know whether to try with a debit card but just worried in case anything goes wrong - at least with over £100 there is some recourse on the credit card operator or am i getting this wrong ?

    thanks

    I have read this whole thread and am trying to work out why I should buy a family of four ticket for £320 when 4 individuals are £300, does anyone know, can kids (4 and 5) get the individual tickets too ?

    Hi
    quick question: my son just turned 3 - do most of these attractions charge for 3 yr old?? I'm trying to work out if it would be cheaper to buy a seperate pass for him or just pay at the door for those that charge?? he's not that big built - about 93 cm tall whaen I last measured him!
    thanks!

    I find it's my eldest (14) who gets bored now as he's not really into history - he does love the Dungeons though:rolleyes: especially when I start shrieking all over the place!:eek::eek:

    :rotfl:

    The walk around the erm, ramparts is it called? is good exercise too, all those stairs!

    Yes, I am! I have just tried to take the plunge & order 2 gift vouchers (Thankyou Destroyer for your advice) and it won't accept the order. I will try again tomorrow.
