    I got my confirmation today. We are off to Haven. I got my first choice park but my last choice date. It means the kids will have to miss the first day back at school after the easter break but it means I won't have to miss any of my course as I will have finished the day before we go.
    WOOHOO - just got to save like mad now!!

    Hey everyone - looking forward to another fab holiday the last week of march - ended up getting our first choice (Warmwell holiday lodges) cheque cleared pretty quickly, had the confirmation two days ago and to pay the remainder of the balance - which i was a tad worried about as they took so long! Parkdean even lowered our balance for us as its just me and partner going :) I look forward to these every year and Warmwell has to be one of the best we have stayed at - Hope everyone has their first choices and everything goes smoothly :)

    Well done! Lots of people I know tried to get Warmwell but didnt get it.

    Hi

    Does anyone know if 'Sun Holidays' can be changed?
    We were having someone help us out and drive us there...but due to health reasons he can no longer drive.
    This leaves us in a very horrid situation as i cannot go by train (severe fear:o ) and there are no coaches or buses that go near there..

    Is there anything i can do? would they have any alternatives in reserve?
    I am clinging on to some hope that we wont be wasting this holiday:rolleyes:

    Thanks!


    Rachel is right that you cant change it but why not see if someone can go instead of you as they dont check your details when you check in, as long as you have the booking confirmation letter someone may be able to swap dates or parks with you was only a suggestion

    I booked online in my name for Parkdean Challaborough bay, went ok but no confirmation letter (did get an email though). Then I sent in the tokens in my partners name for the weekends either end of this booking at the same site. Yesterday I got the booking through for my partner; weekend and site we wanted but we still have heard nothing about the online booking which was made at least a week before!
  • I have also booked a Parkdean site online i booked it the 1st day you could book online got confirmation email yet no confirmation in post, paid by debit card and money has been taken, i did try and query it with the sun however they state i have to wait until 28.2.08 i am getting bit anxious now.

    I am sure all will be fine

    someone mentioned that the various companies haven etc are sometimes slow to send confirmation

    eg its the fault of the holiday company not the sun

    here is the thread : http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=721245

    imagine how many they have to do !!!

    be patient,if the money has been taken then you definitely have a booking :)

    Sometime they are silly money, other times quite reasonable on various sites I have been to in the past.
