  O/T my daily emails from HFP and SP both failed to come thru yesterday and today! Is there an issue Rob?

    I got all mine too!

    You may have accidentally clicked on the spam button in your browser whilst reading one, which probably blocks them at server level.

    No-one else mentioned anything and the open rate (yes, I know if you open them) was steady.

      Strange, I don’t think I’ve spammed them away! I have another email address for the same account so I’ve signed that up and we’ll see what happens tomorrow!

  F**k. I probably have spent close to 5k over the past 3 years and it seems that it will be it for some time…

  Excellent company. .have used them for last few years, US, Australia, Canaries, Greek Isles.

  I also checked for my eurotunnel trip in march, and directferries was £12 more than booking direct.

  Can’t until next quarter 🙂

  Healthy young kitten or dog with middle-aged married owners living in peaceful countryside gets you £5/ month. You can cancel after 30 days but I should wait for the points first.

    Next quarter? How come?

    Some people seem to be getting it down to £30! 🙂

    • harry says:

      6 Jan6 January 09:48

      £31/£38 (bit worried about that one lol)

      • Andrew H says:

        6 Jan6 January 09:57

        What data did you enter for that deal?! 🙂

        • harry says:

          6 Jan6 January 11:17

          Sorry meant £310/ £380 on clubcard.

          As for pets, I can’t see better than £5/ month for a young healthy non pedigree pet etc but I didn’t put in my clubcard number so no discount

          do they cover gerbils?

          jerboa believe it 🙂

        Tried one British Bicoloured Shorthair kitten, eight weeks old, with middle aged married couple…

        Extra – £10.21 per month
        Premium – £14.20 per month (they only give you the 4000 points if you choose extra or premium)

      • Andrew H says:

        6 Jan6 January 12:22

        Can get it down to £4.55 a month

  How nostalgic to see the stock photo of a company no longer operating – MyFerryLink – thanks to the daft decisions of the UK’s ‘competition’ authority. 🙁

  • Rob says:

    6 Jan6 January 12:01

    That pic is actually from the Direct Ferries website!

  • Lady London says:

    @Roger I couldn’t agree more. The moment the demise of myferrylink was certain the fares of other operators across the channel went up by £20 each way.

  Not sure why this hasn’t been covered on HfP. It was mentioned in the comments section yesterday and is covered in a lot of the usual places elsewhere. The offer does run for a while but I suspect it might be withdrawn before too long.

  Anyway, I have just insured my healthy, chipped, spayed, 3yr male indoor cat for £6.31 for the first month’s direct debit. A very good outlay for £40 of CC points. Now, where did I put my cat?

  • Andrew H says:

    6 Jan6 January 10:32

    Am assuming you might have to do two months before the points arrive.

    Although, can they take the points away if you cancel after a couple of months?

    • Mr(s) Entitled says:

      6 Jan6 January 13:47

      T&C’s with regard the 4,000 point simply state: “If you cancel your policy within the first 30 days you will not receive the Clubcard points.”. Within 30 days tells me that the 30th day should be fine but even with two premiums I’m still quids in.

      Also worth noting, that the premium I quoted was my first attempt. I wasn’t going to spend too long playing around with criteria to save a pound or two. Literally took me 2 mins.

    Mr(s) Entitled, whereas I won’t be taking out the insurance, I am reminded of Mrs Slocombe, thank you 🙂 .

    I was in the Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire yesterday, that’s why! Kids didn’t go back until today.

    It will run across both HFP and SP tomorrow.

    If I was even 50% on the ball I would have remembered the SPG closing date and saved myself the bother of knocking out the ‘bits’ piece at 1am ….

      I hope you’ll be able to do a review of that one. Saw it on FHR. How is it for family/kids?
