I didn't know that I could say ' No ' to 0845 numbers given that Celebrity wouldn't ring me back !!!towny44 wrote:... and clearly if Moby does not know how to use 'saynoto0870' to get geo phone numbers, then it does not surprise me that he had difficulty with Celebrity's website.
The lesson to be learned is to ensure that the entire booking process is done by the TA, failing that I wouldn't book another cruise with them.

One shouldn't have to jump through hoops to book a cruise or manage the booking after. If they can't make it easy I'm with Moby and would look elsewhere.

Thank you, oh generous one ...towny44 wrote:... For your future bookingsthe geo or freephone numbers I have for Celebrity are 01932 834300, or 834127 direct to CS, or 0800 018 2525, all obtained on line from "Saynoto0870", don't let me here you say that Yorkshiremen are not generous.
Apart from this one occasion with Celebrity I have never had to chase any holiday company to complete ' their ' totally inefficient processes and I deffo have no intention of doing so again. Like I said earlier the TA will do it ... else we will book with Merv and go elsewhere.
Keep smiling, it's good for your well being

The bats are back - flying around in the garden at dusk - magical - no idea where they nest but so great to see them

Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
Hi Jan... We had a Bat in our bedroom a few years back. We've also had Ravens down the chimney, not to mention Bees down the chimney which found there way into the house. One morning l found a very large Slug sitting on our sofa, we also get the occasional Mouse popping in to say hello. On one occasion we even came back from holiday to find a swam of flying Ants had taken up residence.Jan Rosser wrote:The bats are back - flying around in the garden at dusk - magical - no idea where they nest but so great to see them
We presently have a blackbird feeding out of our hands (and sh*ting on the kitchen table) and a dog that doubles up as a dishwasher... btw..we are thinking of opening our house up as a B&B if you're ever interested
Regards
Keefy
