    *go travel agents - they had me book tickets for parks in Florida with them but didnt tell me what i get or anything and I am getting para ( my sister is coming with me - i printed off what I would get with website thats roughly same price, if travel agents are offering less I want it cancelled under false advertising and change to this site. Over a £1,000 I would like to know whats happening

    They did not add lego land on it and I told the girl that was main park I needed and she never told me its not on it. I have to wait until Wed if they can cancel it or I have to pay £500 for just two days at this park, its not fair its main thing my boy wants to go and been crying loads. Cannot do anthing until Wednesday though and they should cancel it since they told me I got every park and havent!

    Kayla Itness was amazing and she wrote to me after as I got her a personalised heart made with her dogs on it and she asked for my email address and contacted me that night saying how much it meant to her, even introduced me to her mum toshow her it lol. 10 million followers and a multi million business and so nice and down to earth!

    Changed my gas/elec to SSE this morning. Takes up to 4 weeks to change. This will mean soon I can get advanced tickets to shows and same price paying for gas/elec. Due to receive £46.40 cashback from site. I thought would be £70 but who am I to argue lol will take it.

    Hope Wednesday I get good news so I get my money back for parks and can pay for what I actually want. i am so worried, saved all this money for over last year and feel this will be ruined as travel agent never told me xx

    God sake, travel agents are a nightmare honestly.

    Hope you manage to get it all sorted out on Wednesday & don't have to fork out another £500.

    Which travel agent did you use? We use Barrhead Travel but even the travel agents in there are a nightmare so they are.

    I second what dolly says.......take it further as I'm currently pricing up tickets for next year and it's going to cost me over £3k for all the main theme parks including Lego land as Xander wants to go there so stick to your guns.......you never know they might fling Lego land in for free xx
