Anyone hazard a guess as to what time the booking site will open at on friday? Is it normally during the day or evening. I cant remember!

it will probably open sometime on thursday, as in the past it has always seemed to open at least a day before it says it will, then it is a mad scramble in here, with people trying to guess the last code word:D

Hi

Can I ask about the Bonus code - What is this for? What does that give you?

Many thanks

Sorry to be a pain, but can someone help me?? Is it just priority bookers who can use online booking?? Or can anyone?? So do i physically need the vouchers, or can i just use the words? I am not a priority booker, but i want to book asap. Can i use the bonus word??And how many words do i need??

Thanks:beer:

You can only use the code words if you have a priority booking code to book online ... as you don't have a priority booking code you'll have to physically collect the paper tokens & complete the paper application form ... then hopefully next time they'll send you a priority booking code xx

I book a holiday every year with the Sun Holidays, but have not this year received a letter with my priority booking code. I prefer to book online so I can choose the Holiday Park as my husband is very resticted on the dates he can have off work.

Have these been sent out yet, does anyone have a spare?

Yes they have been sent out, and there is is this thread, where you can add your name to the bottom of the list to request a code

So, the consensus is that...

- Some priority bookers received a bonus token and some didn't.

- The booking site opens on Friday requiring 8 tokens, by which point only 7 tokens will have been published in SUN & NOTW, but those priority bookers without a physical bonus token can still use the bonus code work ROCK to make the total up to 8 and book online from Friday.

- There was a post about online bookers being randomly selected to produce physical tokens, but no one else has been able to find mention of this, so probably not worth worrying about unless we can get confirmation.

...right???

I emailed to find out why I hadn't received my priority booking form and that's what they told me, that the letters are sent out at random. I didn't receive one this year and was banking on one for our summer holiday, there seems too many names on the list on the other thread to bother adding my name now. Boo.

Ok, I have read through all of this thread now and I am still confused:-

I have a Priority Application Brochure and a Priority Booking Form (overleaf of the Letter with the Sun Reference Number on the top left hand corner of the letter.

The letter points out that Priority Sun Reference Letter holders only need 8 tokens to book their holiday, and can do this from Saturday 15th January. This would mean that by this date, 8 tokens or codewords will have been collected.

Yet on Page 2 of the Priority Application Brochure it says that you can book online from Friday 14th January. But only 7 tokens/codewords will have been collected by that time.

Others have mentioned that their Priority Booking form has the codeword ROCK on it but mine doesn't and others have mentioned that a bonus code was released prior to the issue of the tokens.

This thread sorry posters, simply has not cleared this up, and someone else said someone was getting confused between codewords and reference numbers when I could read that they were not.

Think somebody could simply clear up all this confusion by saying that the bonus codeword was say, for arguments sake "printed in the sun newspaper on the Thursday/Friday prior to the commencement of the promotion.

Please can somebody clear this up once and for all.

Many many thanks in appreciation of a post that clearly settles the issue. :eek:

Priority booking open on Friday 14th Jan my letter says, you may be able to get in Thursday if you can guess the last code!!!

Your bonus booking code is on the back of your letter that you have received (booking form), its down the bottom and it should say ROCK.
