Hi there
We have just returned from another fantastic fortnight at the Bardis Sun Studios.
We were there when Spiros had the 'pulling the plug' Thomson meeting.
We heard whilst there that Wendy had already posted a message on the forum asking Bardis regulars to contact Thomson, and the whole family wanted me to come on and thank Wendy for them.
I called Thomson this morning as I wanted a name to write to. They wouldn't give me one, surprise surprise!
Here is the address if you do want to write to Thomson with glowing reports re the Studios:
Customer Service Department
Thomson Holidays,
Greater London House,
Hampstead Road,
London NW1 7SD
I will be sending my letter to them this week.
I appreciate all points of view regarding booking direct thereby putting the money in the Corfiot pockets etc, but for me personally I need to book it as a package as we travel from Belfast not the mainland. We would not save any money booking direct; it would in fact cost us more as we would have four flights, transfers, hotels overnight etc. As much as we love the place, we have to think of the money unfortunately.
It would appear obvious to me, and other Arillas regulars, that Thomson are pulling the plug as they don't make enough money out of us from the excursions. They don't want repeat business, they want new visitors who will pay double the local price to go to Corfu town for the evening and will pay double the car hire price.
Any of you have any opinions on this?
Amanda
