I couldn’t find my booking for Dover Castle. I bought two more tickets for the same date and time. I realised I had double booked. I emailed explaining what happened and received a full refund
Very happy with the outcome

Quick and helpful

I didn't have to wait for an agent, they answered quickly, they were very helpful and polite and resolved the issue quickly. This is much better than email, as I had emailed 5 days ago and only received an auto reply and nothing more.
