Unwanted children

I have just spent some time going through “my bookings” on my pad to check the actual price with surcharge, as my confirmation emails are pre increase. I was surprised to find that 2 children had attached themselves to our party at a cost of £6 a night, on two of the bookings. Not only that, we could arrive after midnight and before 2 am and depart between 10pm and midnight. I checked our original confirmations and the addition of children was not my mistake. Might it be something to do with changes related to the new booking system? 

I have amended them now and all is well again. Arrival back to 13:00 and a significant price reduction.

It could be worth checking those bookings.

It doesn’t fill me with confidence in relation to automatic payment before arrival on the new system.

We also have quite a few as we tour differently since getting a MH. There were 11 bookings in total, 2 of which had children added. It was the same site in fact 6 weeks apart.

I have not bothered checking the ones for next year. I will do that after they get migrated over. If that ever comes to pass.😀 Hopefully it’s a fairly rare error, otherwise there could be a few indrawn breaths when folk are asked to pay an unexpected sum at check in. 😂

 Just checked my booking for Sandringham at Christmas and fortunately, all is well and no unexpected visitors.

What did strike me, though is that a week at Sandringham on the CAMC site is only a few pounds less than two weeks on this beautiful CS we are currently on - 2 acres, 5 vans, in a pretty ancient orchard with a stream running along the bottom, semi-serviced pitches and a toilet block that puts most hotels to shame, wonderful peace and quiet and adult only. Shame it closes in October!
