SPORT OPTIONS & SPIKE - CLF - UPDATE TUESDAY 18 MAY @ 9PM

Think we should hold back on Spike and see what he actually does or can do. If it all goes tits up he has to refund, if he doesn’t then there must be at least a thousand already paid, I’m sure he will refund. What he mustn’t try is telling us t claim back off insurances and credit cards, or give a voucher
It’s a package he sold and rules are clear on refund obligations in fact the regulator reminded all travel companies yesterday to meet them or face court action
 
It's been a fucking shambles from start to finish.
I've travelled with Spike on a few occasions and it's always done professionally and I have no doubt everyone will be fully reimbursed, he's probably more gutted than most.
The club should sanction spike as an official carrier, I'm sure between them they could get a good amount of flights off the ground and ensure we have some support there.
I remember when getting to a match was easy.
 
Have you been told anything about vouchers? If not, why are you bringing it up?
Because last year when flights were cancelled generally that’s what they were offering, is it not reasonable to think company’s could offer this again
 
It's just panic and frustration. You are right, we should just wait and see. Nevertheless, I completely understand why nerves are frayed.
Yeah, I can understand why people are on edge. Don't think needless scaremongering about potential refunds helps though.
 
Just watched the SSN thing. Sounds to me they've taken a load of yesterdays gossip, stuck it together and are reporting as if its fact. Cunts trick.
 
SPORT OPTIONS & SPORT AND MUSIC (Spike sand Miles) UPDATE – 14TH MAY 2021



We would like to assure all supporters that have booked a trip to Porto for the Champions League Final that we are continuing to work with and await advice from the relevant authorities to ensure that the trip can go ahead.



There have been conflicting media reports and we do not wish to be involved in the speculation and we eagerly await the UK and Portuguese government directives and decisions and will feed back to you as soon as we have that information.



We continue to press ahead on the basis of a favourable outcome. Decisions were taken to move this game from Istanbul to Porto to accommodate fans from the UK to attend.



In the event that leisure / holiday travel ( along with pcr tests etc ) as we would all understand it is not allowed for UK travellers to Portugal over this period then we would of course give full refunds . We did this at the start of the pandemic 2020, for around 2,000 people ( fans of Glasgow Rangers , Wolves , Scotland will testify to this) .. within a few days of lockdown everyone was refunded .. no vouchers .. no credit notes .. just full refunds .



The Mayor of Porto Rui Moreira has already made his position clear " we are a safe city which loves soccer, which loves football , which loves sport, so welcome ALL " We also understand that the hotels , bars and restaurants are looking forward especially to those coming to the City for three days . So for the moment we will await the decision on the entry requirements for Portugal and go from there .



We ask for your continued patience and urge that we all await the official government positions.



Thanks


Spike and Miles

We expect to be able to update this information within a few days. For the time being we advise to wait until everything is 100% clear. There are NO REFUNDS so you must take out insurance to cover you in case you are tested POSITIVE at any stage before or during this trip.
