Camping Car Park Payment

[Jane NotRog]

Is there a way I can get the payment at the end of the stay to come from my registered, default card instead of needing to have a balance on the card?

I thought I’d set it up today but it still insisted on me adding money to my balance on the card before we could leave.

Have you some spanners?

When in France do as the French do, remove the barrier to gain exit

Unlike eg Dartford tunnel, French toll roads, CCP does not deduct from your registered card, only from a balance created by your registered card. Never sought to understand why, however, I would prefer it, maybe something they will move to as they grow bigger and bigger

General advice seems to be to ring them - usually helpful, and there will be an English speaker. But I think you’ve always had to add the balance to your Pass’Etapes before exiting - we’ve not used a CCP since they changed procedures. You can add the exact amount for the specific CCP if you want.

You could probably ring them and ask to pay directly without loading onto the card as they're very helpful, they might be able to assist.
But why would you when it's so simple to use the way they intend ?

The payment at the barrier only comes from your pass card so you have to load it up as required. However, be aware if you load up your pass card and then book a stop over in advance on your app they take the payment directly from your main card and the balance on your pass card remains as it was.

I fell foul of this by loading my pass to stay 5 nights on 2 very popular location's by booking ahead; to find I had the full credit left on my pass card which we were not going to use for the rest of the trip.

You cannot then simply recover monies from your pass card without incurring a transaction fee.

Edit: unless this has changed since last year.
