Toll tags.

Hi, Ive not used one before. Is there a choice for 4.5 t plating and which is best (France/spain-portugal)?
Thanks

Possibly worth mentioning for those that might not know is that the 3m height limit is calculated to the original vehicle roofline. Any additional equipment such as aircon units, satellite dishes, roof boxes, etc. are not included.

Do you have a reference/authority for that if one needed to quote it, please?

Here you go:

https://www.autoroutes.fr/FCKeditor/UserFiles/File/ASFA%20CLASSE%20VEHICULE%20BD.pdf

It’s in the ‘Remarque’ section over on the right.

Although reading it again I think aircon units might be a moot point, but that does appear to refer to them being included in overall height for HGVs, along with refrigeration units going by the illustration.

“Do not affect the calculation of the total height:

- Loading a vehicle or trailer on the roof

- Accessories, such as: antennas, chests or roof bars, rotating beacons, taxi signs, parabolas, lanterns, solar panels.

Have an impact on the calculation of the total height:

- Elements added to the basic vehicle, such as: habitable cells, air conditioners, refrigeration units.”

I registered my VW Up initially when applying for a Fulli tag. When it arrived I just added the MH to the account. Since then friends and family have used it, just by adding the extra vehicle registrations. The downside is you are still liable for the bill so only trusted F&F

Thanks,Excellent! I have bookmarked it.

What would be the phrase for requesting Classe 2

"Camping-car, moins de trois metres en haut" ?

Google translate offers this from my Sarf Lundun accented request:

Oi mec, je suis un camping car de moins de 3 mètres mais avec des accessoires sur le toit !

Worth noting Fulli now take amex. You don't need a Euro bank account, just an AMEX card.

Source: Applied last week, and worked with that -> didn't work with my 2 (UK) bank accounts, and didn't want to open a Revolut. I did have 2 amex cards, so just used one.

Hi, Ive applied using Barclays IBAN, got a confirmation e-mail from both Fulli and APrr (presumably their payment intermediary). If ther is a problem collecting the 1 euro will they notify me?

It wouldn't accept my Monzo or Barclays IBAN on my accounts and was sayign not valid (despite me having received payments via those in both cases from Europe before. If it worked for you it got further than it did on my IBAN (which I don't think is unusual having worked in banking for some years myself).

However, thankfully I did have the 2 amex accounts!
