Booking holiday online with Budget Travel

spockpower

Ok i found a holiday on budgettravel.ie for a group of 8 of us.

Do you know what the booking process is like?
i.e. do you need a credit card and do you have to pay the entire price off or can you just pay deposit and then pay so much monthly or whatever?


Any help apprieciated:)

You usually have to give them a ring and discuss the booking over the phone with them?

They will take a deposit online and then automatically hit your credit card when the balance is due.

I would imagine if you want the flexibility of paying in installments you should call into one of the shops.

As far as i know if you book online you can still go into the shops and say bits off it. I'm fairly sure i did this before but it was years ago so memory a bit hazy.

I'm sure if you start the booking process there will be terms and conditions to read before you pay which may give more info

Incorrect, you have to ring up and make credit card payments only.

AFAIK the way budget is structured the online site is ran by head office and each of the shops are treated internally like a seperate agencies so if you book online the booking is credited to head office and as such any changes to the booking need to go through head office.

I think this works the same way with the shops that if you were to book in bray you cannot pay off your booking in DunLaoghaire if you happened to be there.

I may be wrong but I seem to remember this being the case last time I booked with Budget.
