How do I find my Virtual call invite?: Once you confirm and pay for your virtual call with Santa, you will receive an email with your link to the date and time of your call. You can then add this to your calendar so you do not miss your booking.
What if I miss my Virtual call booking time?: If you miss your virtual call booking time, please contact us immediately. We do not accept responsibility for missed calls but will endeavour to accommodate and reschedule your call at our discretion.
How many people can attend a Virtual call with Santa?: We recommend keeping your group small so Santa gets a turn to speak to everyone. The ideal number of children is between 1-4. If you have more children than this we cannot guarantee that Santa will have one-on-one time with each of them.
How do I personalise my Virtual call?: During the booking process you will be asked for your children’s names, ages and interests. Please keep these to one interest per child so Santa and interact with each one.
How does the Virtual call work?: Once you make your booking you will receive an email with a link to your booking date and time. When you enter the virtual chat Santa will be waiting for you and your family and greet you all with a HoHoHo. He will then greet each child and endeavour to speak with each of them. Please try to only have one person speaking at a time as Santa is all the way in the North Pole and his hearing can be troublesome if lots of people are talking over each other.
Can I cancel my Virtual call?: Once your booking is confirmed and paid for, we are unable to refund or cancel your call. We will endeavour to work with you to arrange an alternate time for your call however we cannot guarantee this.
Can I get a recording of my Virtual call?: Yes- All our virtual calls are recorded. After your Virtual call with Santa you will be emailed a recorded copy of your call.
