    I haven't had one of these before but would like to apply, can anyone tell me how they work, I noticed when I looked online that you can have an additional card holder, so if I want one for family of 4, would i put mine and hubby name down, or would my card permit the 4 of us, and if I wanted to get an additional card for my mum, so she could also use it to take her and kids out would that work??

    Hi,
    yep, i put one in my name and one in my mums name, that way my husband (who is very very unlikely to ever take the kids on a trip without me) can get the discount when we go, but then if my mum wanted to take the kids out with my dad they can us it as well.

    Like others during the week, could see the offer - which seems to have disappeared? No sign of it on Daily Mail or via link, despite waiting for 7th May............very odd

    I also applied earlier in the week on behalf of my son and his family I got an on screen acknowledgement and thought Id received email confirmation but I'm either dreaming or I've deleted it as I can't find it now. Anyway my daughter was miffed that I didn't apply on her behalf so I said not to worry I'd do it today!!! I think I'm going to be in for a load of earache if it doesn't come back on line, Maybe its been too popular and they've decided to pull it. Anyway hopefully its just a temporary glitch and we'll all be able to apply later tonight or tomorrow - Fingers crossed
