Blimmin ferry companies
Discussion
SWMBO and I are popping across the channel at the end of the week and booked a sailing which we though we could just make after some meetings on the wrong side of London.
Ferry co. has e-mailed to say that they've had to bring the sailing forward 15 mins. because of mechanical troubles on the boat we should be on.
So - I e-mailed and explained that we might not make it in time, depending on traffic on M25/M20 etc. etc. and could they confirm that since they changed the booking time, we would be able to travel on a later ferry if necessary at no extra charge.
Here's the reply
" I would like to advise you that we are very busy later this week. If you miss the 1935hrs, we will book you onto the next available crossing. Amendment fees and any excesses may apply."
w*nk*rs! I've done my best to ensure that I wouldn't be late for the ferry I originally booked so why should I pay extra if I'm late for the one you've moved me to, which goes earlier ?
(ETA - sorry for missing the apostrophe in the subject line)
