It is very interesting to read on Ingham’s web site, under the Prices section, that you can buy lift passes, lessons, etc… and there is NO mention of time or date restrictions.
Could this be a bit of ammunition for you ?

PeteI use to have a friend like chasing people with broken limbs in the resort to buy there lift pass cheap
Have you ever ambulance chased in resort?
re: Borovets with Inghams
gary, stop hitting 'refresh' lol, there have been many posts this year about tour companies and the all of a sudden unavailability of packages due to time etc, or even in my case losing the booking, and im surely not that cynical to suggest that one way of bumping up late deals is to sell them on the bus for around £180 but once is coincidence twice etc as a wise man said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Balkan are the same. You can book the package online (which I did) but not the ski or boarding pack. The site states, "If you want to add any ski/board packs please phone us on blablitty blah blah after your booking has been made"
I waited a week, then called to add it, and they said they were going to charge a £25 admin fee to add an £85 boarding pack to my existing booking because I'd waited too long.
To be fair to Balkan, they waived it with little or no fuss from me, but it ...

To be fair to Balkan, they waived it with little or no fuss from me, but it certainly wasn't written down anywhere that there was an excess charge if you left the booking of it for more than 3 days.

Unfortunately Inghams are just saying that I can't book it through them at all but that there will be packages available when I get there. It sounds like a bit of a farce to me and I'm not convinced by their argument that as it's a cheap deal I can't pre-book.I'm going to call them again tomorrow and hopefully get a different person to speak to who can actually help me out.
re: Borovets with Inghams
well i had the same when i spoke to them about it after reading it on here,they just said it was because i booked through lastminute.i like the tip about the Samakov Ski Depot,will give that a try me thinks!!!!
otherwise it'll just have to be the reps!!!
am getting there Saturday aswell,leaving from Manchester,am boarding so hopefully see you on the slopes or in the bars.

I might have a spare lift pass, as my girlfriend can't fly now, due to a chest infection. I will be picking it up with mine on Sunday morning (i arrived on Saturday night). If you want to text me if you haven't got one by then, i'll be quite happy to do a deal. I'll be trying to get rid of it any way. Text me if you're interested.Stu

re: Borovets with Inghams
Cheers Stu!!Will try and negotiate a half decent deal with the rep as I want to book ski school as well but I might just take you up on that. Will have my mobile out there so will text you Sunday.
Thanks again!
