Thanks again guys, might check out the fairfx card.
Wildwood I am so sorry that happened to you, was there no claims thing that you could go through?
Yeah as wayne said it has gone to administrators and we are supposed to be on the list but I know I will never get my money back , it is just so frustrating as we worked so hard for the money ( husband was working 70 hour weeks ) and in the blink of an eye it is gone . Well enough of the sad face just looking forward to going back just a few weeks to go .
again I'm so sorry that this happened. I hate the tax man, nothing but greedy people who want to take peoples hard earned money and do absolutely nothing themselves for it
Yes I was one of the people that lost £2000 a week before we went last year and I paid crown currency just 1 hour before they did a runner . To this day I have not had a penny back so will never ever ever get my money from any where else then a shop now . BE VERY CAREFUL
I find with anything like this any money in the pot disappears on legal fees. I hope anyone that lost money gets something back but I wouldn't expect much, if anything. Good luck.I know this is an old thread; but just trying to contact people that may have been affected by the Crown Currency Saga. I've just had a letter from HMCTS London Regional Confiscation Unit with an update about possible payout. If you'd like more info please PM me & I'll forward a copy. Seems genuine, not sure what % people will get back. P.s WayneG will vouch that I'm genuine - I met his family on a Disney Cruise
Yes usually a % of loss.I assume you get a % back -learnt a lesson the hard way though! I know some people lost thousands.
Hope you enjoyed your cruise, 5 weeks until ours
Yes usually a % of loss.
Cruise was OK, nice relaxing time but not in the same league as the Transatlantics, we have been spoilt with those. This was a cheap 4 nighter, very different clientele, too many children (got used to Transatlantic with very few) and very very loud parents. food not up to same standards, same with entertainment. After driving 2,000 miles around California it was great to have 4 nights relaxing. Last Disney cruise for a while, Celebrity next year for Alaska. Concierge balcony cabin £3,300 for all 3 of us including alcohol package, Disney £9,300 no drinks included.

Everyone I speak to seems to enjoy cruising with Celebrity. Looking forward to trying them.We did an Alaskan cruise with Celebrity this summer from Seattle, it was very good.
