    Hi

    We are first timers for the Sun deal and have collected all the tokens. We've read the guide and it asks for us to choose from the selected dates when wee would like to go. Trouble is we can't find the "selected dates" for Europe 7 day hols anywhere! (We've found the UK ones)

    We have a 2 month old and are looking to have a break outside school hols this summer.

    Does anyone know where we can find the dates? Do we just put down any dates and they choose the nearest one for us?

    Thanks.

    Joe

    I would imagine that a 7 day holiday would be a Fri-Mon +Mon-Fri etc
    So as long as your prefered dates are within the published dates, you should be ok.

    It says nothing in the booking guide about being only available to priority code holders.

    We booked and paid for ours online for October, in the free entertainment passes/ free service charge time.
    Then this morning we got a bill from the holiday park, for linen hire £8.50(which we didn't want) and £19.50 service charge!

    Adding £28 to our holiday. We specifically chose the place where we were going as it had the free S/C /entertainment passes, so !!!!!! is all that about?

    Has anyone else been stung like this?

    The service charge is for stuff like your Gas and Electricity, which you will be using quite a lot of in October to heat and light your caravan.
    I can see the entertainment passes being free in October because they wont have the full time entertainments staff there but I can't imagine why you would get free service charge any time of the year.

    One thing I haven't seen in Freecycle, is people asking for the reservation code.

    I asked on Freecycle only to get a reply from someone saying that they were selling for £40 on ebay! That put the end to that!

    Is anyone on here still awaiting a confirmation?

    We posted our application as soon as the final token came out. Friends have all received confirmations and we have heard diddly squat!

    I have booked two holidays, same place and time. One for me and my family and one for my sister and her's.
    They both went through ok and I received 2 separate booking numbers and both payments have been taken out of my bank.

    I didn't get an error message or anything. I am wondering now if they will be cancelled.

    That's awful! The Sun can't really do much to stop it though, except to only allow bookings for the person named on the letter with the reference number.

    i too got this reply and they have now changed the f.a.q to say you can only book one online so the greedy !!!!!!s who booked more than they should have have ruined it for the rest of us!

    I booked two with no problems. I didn't know you couldn't! I don't think I am greedy for wanting a holiday with my family and my sister's family at the same time!

    How about complaining about people who buy up offers in the supermarket, when items are really cheap and stop other people benefiting from them, like on the grab it now thread. I see things going cheap, that I would love to have (say a toy or a game that is at a giveaway price) but you just know that some "greedy" people will be there first thing in the morning and buy as many as they can, then put most of them on Ebay!
    (yes, you can get there early, but I work and can't get there first thing in the morning when the offer is on)

    That to me is greedy and not fair. I think it's about time I got something nice for a change ;)

    Not just me then. I was starting to wonder if it had got lost in the post or I hadn't got anything. Due to my husbands work we were very limited with dates. Fingers crossed we get something
