Mum2one: what Haven site was that out of interest?

The original was Prestahaven - Prestatyn, then the nice one re shoe incident was Martin Mere by Blackpool. x

Thought i'd update on the scandle that is Haven! not only when we went to book beginning of jan we picked the 3 bed prestige for £549 that they quickly sold out of and i even rang up to check they didnt have any left. Today when i check (dont know why I do think I maybe liking the fact I have something to moan about lol) they have magicaly got this prefrence of caravan back wow and guess what its a wopping!!!!!!! £1,099 (for 7nights) can you believe this!

Are there not rules about this kind of mis-guided advertising / stunt pulling and down right take you for a ride money grabbing Might write to watchdog, this cant be allowed!

Isn't this awful. many people have assured me this is a tactial thing and the prices will drop. Did you also keep receiving all their promotional jargon through the post? we did which i thought was a joke as the offer clearly wasnt there any more. thank you for your input.

I went to my travel agent today and they were able to offer me the same holiday £150 aprox cheaper than what i could find it online i was amazed and i am going to book before monday this was to haggerston castle so do check your local travel agents prices sometimes they can be cheaper

The one way they can get around is, at time of printing or the offer available, say they 2,000 gold caravans, normal price was £1099, but the sale prices were £99 as long as they had one caravan at that price they've covered the bums.

Another example its not haven but a big company, they say they have disabled caravans - on one site out of nearly 200 caravans - the 1 disabled caravan is now privately owned, although the owner does lease certain weeks of the year, the company won't put a 2nd disabled caravan on they have one which covers the advertising..........
