The Isle of Man Steam Packet company actually 'phoned a friend of ours who had paid his money, on Tuesday morning before the official anouncement was made. They wanted to know if he still wanted the booking. They were 99% sure it was to be cancelled. When we 'phoned to change some details over the weekend they told us the payment date had been put back until they knew what was happening. Seems like some companies do think of their customers.
