Just been looking at terms and conditions and it seems you can apply for £9.50 and £15 hols online.

If booking online, you may use your unique Priority Sun Reference Number to make one £9.50 holiday and one £15 booking online. Further bookings can be made using the postal application method.
For postal applications, you will need to send a separate application form for both holidays you are applying for, detailing the different date choices on each.

Hi tiggs - which bit of the T&Cs is this in please - very useful to know, thanks.

If you look on the letter it says the online booking site opens on the 15th Jan. However if you look in the booklet that came with the form it says you can book from 14th ('Exclusive' bit, inside cover/page 2).

Oooh - thank you, I see it now!

The other exclusive (6 tokens if including cornwall & east anglia) seems unfair though! For us up north, there's no way I can afford the journey that far south.

We're up north too & we don't really want our dogs in the car that long, we aim for a 4 hour max journey & cornwall is closer to 8 hours :eek::eek: xx

thanks again for the codes

just a little info about camp sites.

pontins brean we had a nice apartment yet a mate had to moved and eventually complained and left early

challabarough bay by plymouth was a gorgeous site a bit out of the way but right on the beach, the bar overlooked the sand and sea

riviera bay brixham was good accomodation and lots of places locally to see i.e. brixham, torquay, babbacombe

rookley park isle of wight not so good, caravan stank did go end of season but not impressed

hope this helps

Avoid Pontins Southport like the plague! Its the only place I've been to where I couldnt wait to leave. The swimming pool was dirty with a rough and painful floor in the shallow toddler pool and the accommodation was also dirty and in poor condition. I'm glad we were only there for a 3 day weekend break.

I thought it might have improved since then, but I asked a friend who went there last year and she said the same thing.

The Pontins site in Wales was ok though - but didnt have as many facilities as Haven sites have. If you want action - I strongly recommend Haven.

I would also avoid Pontins at Camber sands. We went there last february, and only lasted 18 hrs, and went back home, it was that bad !!! Never have we been to anywere that has been so dirty, old, smelly and cold. We did consider spending the night in the car...

We wrote a nice letter to complain, and never heard from them :mad:

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???
