Mobile Floridatix price rockets!

After searching for ages and comparing all options finally decided on buying a flex ticket. By using topcash back to get 2.1% from Floridatix I decided to bite the bullet. Go to buy tonight and the price is up from £230 and adult to £249 and child's from £222 to £239! When buying 8 tickets that's a big increase 😢
Am now looking at florida escapes anyone got a code that's valid?

We spoke to them the other day and they buy the tickets in bulk, they said that they were down to the last few tickets and that apart from the fact that the prices were due to increase, the exchange rate would mean that the prices would have to increase. We bought them that day at the old price, which I am glad we did.
Give them a ring and see if these prices include the annual price increase or if these are more expensive simply due to the exchange rate as if it's the latter then they might get more expensive with their next batch of tickets

TravelRepublic are showing £231 adult and £222 child. I am not sure but I think FloridaTix might price match as they have a price guarantee, might be worth phoning them

Looking on the Floridatix site now, a six park ticket 2016 is showing £247 adult, £249 child... Five park ticket is £249 adult... Don't get that at all?!

Any veterans got an idea as to reputations of the various vendors?

FloridaTix have been around for quite a while and have been an advertiser here on the DIBB for years. The site is run by Attraction World, who is the same ticket company used by many highstreet travel agents. I think a number of DIBBers have used them in the past.

The 6 park FlexTicket Plus is £259 on FloridaTix's website, or £249 for the 5 park FlexTicket. The FAB 5 ticket is just £232 (covers US, IOA, SW, AQ, BG).
