Lol
It's far more generous than many other French fisheries, it should be applauded.

Fair play they'll carry on paying their employees wages whilst losing money at an unprecedented time. Let's see how many other companies are arsed/able to commit too the same.

You agree to their terms when you book. So surely the clue is NON refundable? If you don't like or agree to the possibility you will lose that 100 pounds then you don't book.

Leaves a little bit of a nasty taste though.
I can understand "non refundable" in the case of somebody cancelling their trip and leaving them with a blank week at short notice.
But that isn't the case in this instance.
People who want to go now can't through no fault of their own.
I think that the fishery should have made an exception in this case.
But that's only my opinion, and like ********s, we all have our own.

I agree to an extent. But their closure isn't their fault either. It's a difficult one. I would have thought the least they could do was offer alternative dates later this year or next.

I also think Gigantica should be applauded. Friends of mine have been told that they will not get back any of their full payment made or an alternative date for next year ! The venue Napoleon Lakes will not even answer their messages !!!

I'm told Gigantica are now refunding the none returnable deposits after Tom @ Sticky Baits offered to reimburse all those that lost out from his own pocket.
Dunno how accurate this is. Odd state of affairs if true.

I think it might be more to do with the backlash they received on Social Media Yonny.
They were getting a right "pasting" last night, with many, many folk saying they would never go back there....

Etang rendavous have just moved our trip from 11th april to same time next year. Been waiting 2 years down to 3 weeks now up to 12 months again.... at least no money lost.

Angler's that are experiencing problems getting holiday refunds should be aware that all French fisheries are required to be French registered and have a Siret number. They are therefore required to abide by French Law not English Law. Anyone who has made a payment to a French venue regardless of making the payment to an English bank are entitled to a full refund. Also that the French government are putting in place a compensation scheme for registered businesses which includes fishing venues.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
