Probably overloaded then. I am getting a halfterm date at the site I want abroad, so maybe its where you are picking?

Its crashed me out due to inactivity , so am starting again.

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 16/01/2010 11:08

YAY! Booked a week at Le Bois Masson, starting 28 May. My preferred date was 31 May, but I got my preferred site!

carrielou2007 · 16/01/2010 11:44

I've got the codes and my online code but can't get onto the site at all, it won't load on my latop

MamaVoo · 16/01/2010 12:13

Do you need 10 codes if you haven't got a priorty booking? What is an online code? What are the chances of me actually getting a holiday - we can go during term time and am hoping that will help?

Sorry for all the questions but I'm new to this.

saggyhairyarse · 16/01/2010 13:19

I think you do need ten codes if you haven't got the priority booking and the online code is the code on the bottom of the token (a four letter) word, so you can book online rather than posting it.

We didn't get our choice of site or dates last time, even with the priority but you will get something.

MamaVoo · 16/01/2010 13:37

Thanks. I'll be happy with anything as it's all we'll be able to afford this year.

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 16/01/2010 13:46

It was hard 'work' booking, just about every page would time out, and I had to refresh. Took about 1 1/2 in total to get it booked. Still, at least its done now!

Is anyone trying to book Italy? Anyone been successful?

l0r · 16/01/2010 16:19

hi ladies

so do any off u have the tokens from the pappers and dont need them as u had a priority booking form? if answer is yes and u no longer want them could i please give them a home? no worries if you dont but thought it was worth an ask!!!

Many thanks in advance

carrielou2007 · 16/01/2010 19:22

Now it's taken my payment and sent confirmation of payment but page crashed again and no confiration of booking sent - this is sending me around the twist!!!!!

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 16/01/2010 19:32

It can take up to 14 days to get confirmation of booking, thats one of the things it said. I only got confirmation of payment too.

carrielou2007 · 16/01/2010 20:55

Ooh that sounds good, before it has always come through straight away but then I have always had the confirmation page but as it froze on me it is just still stuck on the pay no page.

Pretty frustrating when the phone number comes up unobtainable as does the 'contact us' email!!

saggyhairyarse · 16/01/2010 22:44

My payment page crashed too so I reloaded it and I got an email saying payment taken and another confirmation of booking one.

If they've taken your payment it is probably fine and just a technical issue but keep emailing/calling to be sure.

Maclaren · 17/01/2010 14:48

I managed to get the week in France that i wanted and I am using my Tesco's points to pay for the Euro Tunnel so my whole holiday has cost £120 wahoo!

2anddone · 17/01/2010 19:53

The Sun made us work hard for our holiday this year, I have just changed jobs so can only go away in school hols. We managed to get a long weekend at end of easter hols to Butlins and a week in Scotland for May half term. Took about 3 hours of playing with dates and parks to get wat I wanted though!

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 18/01/2010 08:22

You've got me worried now that I haven't got a confirmation of booking email....

FanjolinaJolie · 18/01/2010 16:57

Is it too late to start collecting tokens do you know???

When is the last token being printed??

Many thanks

onadietcokebreak · 18/01/2010 21:17

FanjolinaJolie · 19/01/2010 10:07

Thanks, I read on Martin Lewis' website that they are printing tokens until 31 Jan so I do still have time to start, I think.

Here's my addy

a n n a h o r r i d g e at y a h o o dot c o dot uk

Without the gaps! Thanks

onadietcokebreak · 19/01/2010 12:10

Hi all,
This is the first time we have collected the tokens, so not very well-versed on how this all works. I was wondering if anyone could help me with some questions??
I was wondering what the priority booking id was.
I had a look at the holiday parks on the Sun website, but didn't see any in Europe, does anyone know if these have gone now?
It looks as if the breaks are all for three and four nights, has anyone added days on to this?

It looks as if I will just be collected the tokens from the papers so won't be sending them until next week.
Good luck everyone!

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 20/01/2010 09:58

A priority booking ID is a letter that the Sun sends to people who have booked holidays before, although you don't get one every time, it seems. If you have a priority ID, you can book holidays in Europe as well as the UK, and you can book 7 day breaks too.

The brochure which comes with the newspaper, which is all you'd normally see if the Sun hadn't sent you something, only offers 3/4 day breaks in the UK
