Dear Mavis,

We thank you for contacting Euroferries it has taken a long time to launch but we are finally there.

Services commence on 14th November and bookings can be made online www.euroferries.co.uk

Cars, day trips, foot passengers, vans, motor homes and caravans can be booked online.

Thank you once again for taking the time to contact us.

Kind Regards,

Hannah
Customer Services


Well the website has just given me a Price for our Christmas Trip

I know its so annoying and really they could be bought to justice because they are selling a product (a journey) that they cant fulfill.

Hi

I emailed Fred Olsen and asked when the BE was coming to the UK. Fred Olsen told me to ask Euroferries!

Hi all,

Weeeelllll..............

Latest news is...................no service until the new year..........probably spring!!!!!!!!!

That is EXACTLY one year since they said they would FIRST start the service.....

Anyone surprised?????

God - I do hope anyone here who has already booked can get their money back. This is surely something trading standards should look into - Euroferries are taking bookings......and therefore MONEY.....without a hope to fulfill their side of the contract i.e. provide a ferry service.

Both the ports of Ramsgate and Boulonge said its not their fault and that they are ready..................

Mavis - any response from Euroferries or the port to your emails?
Cheers
Carl

ps - will see if I can find the Bonanza Express - she is not showing in Teneriffe as far as I can see...........

Hi

As far as I know, those who booked were given refunds.

If I was starting a fast craft service, I would start in March too. There is not enough traffic in winter, and thus little anciliary revenue such as on board sales and so on.

LATEST UPDATE!!!!!!

As Fred Olsen - the owners of the fast-craft intended for this service - have not been paid.....they have repainted the Bonanza Express in their own colours.

They are putting the craft into service in the Canaries shortly.

Now, this COULD be a temporary measure.....BUT....
I honestly think that this project is a dead duck.....

I think you are so right --it always seems to end like this.
I think they shouldnt write about it until they are really sure. Embarassed

Hello Mavis

Maybe they were testing the Market and found insufficient punters.

If so should have spent money on market research instead of inconveniencing and disappointing those who booked.

It is quite possible that the Bonanza Express could be covering other catamarans in the Fred Olsen fleet whilst they under go maintenance or refit etc.

Meanwhile, there are two catamarans doing nothing at Tilbury.
