Merlin Annual standard pass half price

Ladyshopper

My passes arrived this afternoon, top marks to Sealife in Cornwall. :T

Also, the lady on the phone said the voucher would be valid for 3 months, but the voucher itself says 10 months, so no hurry to exchange.

Just checked out Merlins Facebook page, deal is on until 31st Jan & more importantly for those who renew at the beginning of theme park season (mid march), merlin have stated if you have less than eight weeks unexpired you can renew and have the unexpired time added to your new pass. Merlin seemed to have listened to the negative feedback on their facebook page. I'm happy. I hope the info helps, I guess it's less of a grabbit as we have until the end of the month now,:j but a good price for us thrill seekers! :j

Great bargain these - we got them last year when the offer was on, saw it on here.

We live in Manchester and have been to:

Legoland Trafford Centre about 15 times - we use it as a free soft play really and have a coffee whilst the kids go off and play for an hour or so on a Saturday morning

Alton Towers 12 times (stayed at the campsite a mile outside and went every day for 5 days at Easter, then in the summer, also whit half term - you can get in an hour before the general public with the passes so can go on Nemesis for example before the queues)

Legoland Windsor twice
The London Eye
London Aquarium
London Dungeons

Warwick Castle twice

Blackpool Tower including the pantomime and circus, Blackpool Acquarium, Blackpool Dungeons, Madam Tusauds

We have a caravan so planned our camping trips around the passes last year. Went to Blackpool last weekend and had a full day and the kids want to go again next weekend!

Our passes expire 22/1 so we will definitely be renewing them.

I was completely honest and told them I'd read about them doing it on a forum. The lady didn't bat an eyelid!

Can't wait to start using these. As KarenBB said, Warwick Castle isn't too far from me, and it is a really good day out, but not convinced the weather this weekend would have been good enough so glad I didn't have to drive there. Will definitely take a trip when the weather is better though.

Have a booked a cheap travelodge break to Blackpool at Easter (£15 a night) so will be making full use of passes there as the Blackpool Tower is now part of the Merlin Group.

totally unrelated to this topic but would you mind telling me with which travelodge did you make your booking at Blackpool as £15 is an excellent price.

legoland and sealife/aquarium you have to pay from 3yr old

alton towers, its from 4yrs

chessington and thorpe park are by height, you have to be under 0.9m to get in free at chessington and under 1m to get in free at thorpe park

although be aware if you are getting this for rides, then there are very few for young children at thorpe park and chessington

Who did you call, everyone i've called including the 0871 423 2110 and Gweek said i have to go down to the attraction and collect the vouchers from there.

Please help as i really want to get these and haven't got the time to drive into London.

It was Blackpool South, which is a pretty new one. There was plenty of availablity at this one and the other Blackpool ones over Easter.

I googled the number for Sealife at Gweek. Was a local number rather than one starting 08XXX.

I guess if lots of people have been doing it they might have decided to stop sending them out?

I googled sea life Gweek and used the number on there yesterday too. But as already said, they may have been told to stop doing it, as so many people have done it.
