Or do you pay for things like these once at the chosen holiday?you pay the £38, then the holiday site sends you a invoice for the rest of the charges, be careful tho as they usually add on linen so if you don't want that take it off
...and any unwanted entertainments passes. It might not apply if you're travelling as a family but if you're only booking for say 2 or 3 people they'll usually take off the charge for the passes that aren't required as well if you ask them to which saves a few poundsso as deanos said, if you don't want the linen you can have that removed so that all you should be paying for are the extra service charges/power charge for your gas & electric and the entertainment passes you require if applicable. Look out as the charges vary wildly from park to park :eek:
I'll give you an example. We're going to Greenacres in North Wales in March for 5 days. The extras on the invoice that came from Haven after I booked and paid originally was:
Entertainments & facilities Passes - £34 (@£8.50 each for 4 people)
Linen and beds made up on arrival - £14
Power charge - £27.80
So by removing the linen charge and taking our own and asking for the 2 passes to be removed as there were only two of us going that saved £31, leaving an additional £44.80 to pay instead of another £75.80!0 -

This is driving me absolutely insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get through the whole thing and then go to pay and then get "An error comunicating with streamline has occurred (5-)"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have tried different browsers, different computers, different internet connections and ALL give the same thing
Can anyone please help?
Has anybody got any contact information, e-mail or phone number?
The site "help", just says if you have problems, like mine, then send your application in by post!!!!!!!!!
Bit difficult as i dont have the "paper" tokens, just the words!
Kids were really looking forward to this0 -

There have been others who were after their 'lost' priority number who have rung the Sun, rather than email - don't know the phone number though sorry.0
