Difficulty booking Night Riviera berths for May

[trevmonk]

I'm trying to book on GWR for twin berths for the Night Riviera from Paddington on 7 May. It seems you can book seats but trying to book a cabin gives a "technical fault", or goes straight to seat reservations Am I doing something wrong?

It's not just full is it? That's the day before the bank holiday this year.

Give them a ring?
There was an option for sleeper bookings when I rung their telesales last week, this was after I had tried unsuccessfully at a ticket office.
I have to say they were very helpful and was on the phone with them for less than 5 minutes.

Ah yes...I forgot the bank holiday is on Friday this year.

I'll try telesales tomorrow. Thanks.

Yes their telesales are very helpful and I found it to be a quick and totally painless experience when I booked the sleeper last year after failing to do it on the website.
