    I have managed to book butlins Skegness but didn't give me the option to upgrade and booking confirmation says standard? Will I be able to upgrade as standard will be horrible?

    Hi, I've just come back from Butlins Skegness. We booked it through the Daily Mail offer at the beginning of the year and didn't upgrade. Basically the apartment was the same as a silver one, the only difference being there was no microwave or iron. You can hire both onsite for less than the cost of the upgrade. However, if you do prefer to upgrade, you can contact Butlins direct - but you can ONLY upgrade to silver. If you wish to go for Gold accommodation, they will charge you the full brochure price for it - that's what they told me when I asked. HTH :)

    before then if previous years are anything to go by, get to the end of may/beginning of june they will be emailing us previous customers with more holidays they have available for the summer, last year we booked pontins pakefield for 4 nights as that was the only break we could get through the sun, then 3 weeks later got email from haven with offers in it, could have booked 7 nights in blackpool for cheaper than the sun break, so unless the sun release any more breaks in the next few weeks we are gonna sit tight and hope to get something through from haven
    the dregs of this promos dates ? or diff dates ?
  • Hi lisa16926
    I have had exactly the same problem as you, in fact I had it the last time I tried to book a sun holiday, It must be the settings on my computer, used google chrome, ie but still not working, Used my partners laptop, it worked straight away, if not try your mobile, good luck x

    same dates i think, to be honest did not use it last year as we had already booked pakefield:mad:, but used it the year before as we had not managed to book a summer holiday and got a luxury plus caravan at devon cliffs, both the caravan and site was lovely

    Thank you for the advice! Probably won't bother upgrading then ... Just that reviews and pics of standard accomodation looks poor x
