I've just played - and won!!!! Well I got 25% off - using the code EXX25JS0Y3.  I don't know if this is exclusive to my name, but if not then anyone else is welcome to try it.

   No, it's not an exclusive code, Val, but I think you'll find it's only 20% off!

Yes, I've now won three times, using three different email addresses - each time 20% off - but for those who might have been going to book at full price, at least 20% is better than nothing!

We stopped using these 'Ferry Brokers' years ago. It's always worth comparing the operator's own website price before booking - only then will you know if you've got a bargain.

The DFDS competition offers some decent prizes, but not if you're Scots, Welsh or Northern Irish, the website asks your Nationality, offers many European countries in the drop-down menu, but only "English" for anyone entering from the UK. A real insult to the other British nations . . .

Thread success then? But best bet when booking is just to check all the ferry operators websites rather than booking agents. DFDS is usually the cheapest but I would put P&O at most reliable/quickest(apart from more expensive Eurotunnel obvs.)& despite change of name/ownership I would still put MyFerryLink as least reliable although generally slightly cheaper than P&O.

Thanks for all your advise.

No, there is a drop-down list for Country of Residence, which includes Wales and Scotland (admittedly not Northern Ireland) and one for Preferred Language, which includes most major European languages (but not Welsh).
