    And it's now happened to me
    Flights have been booked as I've been on many Sun holidays with no issues
    I'm now looking at booking direct to Eurocamp or taking my own tent for the week
    I'll ring the helpline and hope they can get me a good deal
    Hope the Sun never uses these Greenbank clowns ever again
  • Just had my holiday cancelled too. Have booked ferry as well. No way I can afford to rebook somewhere else. So disappointed/angry.

    Greenbank and Eurocamp are the same company, if they stop using them then there will be virtually no European holidays available through the promotion.

    That's terrible! How did you find out the booking was cancelled and was that after you received the Eurocamp booking confirmation?

  • Hi Guys i to have been affected i had all 3 holidays cancelled after doing a fair bit of digging today through email servers the booking server and companies house here's a few things i found and had confirmed

    green bank holidays LTD is in fact also eurocamp they use that name for the bookings side

    the server and software to cause this issue was not the sun but in fact green banks

    the emails and hotline you call for any issue for this is yes green bank but eurocamp are fully aware of what they have done but they are calling it their dedicated sun holidays team

    they knew of the issue the day after the booking site opened but sat on it for a fair while as they told me to try find other dates but it became clear they had done this to far to many people so opted for the tough just take the refund

    the people that got though after us early bookers but received all 3 emails were ok regardless of world pay taking payments

    hope this helps

    My holidays been saved
    I just booked direct through Luxcamp

    https://lux-camp.co.uk/

    Only cost me £10 more than would have been through the Suns deal as there's 6 of us including 4 children
    Got same date, 6 April for week at Bella Italia
    3 bedroom caravan
    Got my invoice and bill for future payments through almost straight away
    After my flights had been booked when the Sun Holiday was booked I'm so relieved
