Have booked independantly lots of times, thought I would give the club website a try after getting a quote directly. Looking at late April Plymouth to Santander back Roscoff Plymouth a few weeks later.

Can't seem to get quote for different return journey. Also single quote more than me doing it myself. Am I doing something wrong? Put in 7 CC cheques, so even taking them off the total it was £23 more. Is it best to use the phone?

Also, does anyone belong to B Ferries frequent traveller club? You used to have to prove you had a place abroad, not any more. You seem to save 30% a trip, so would be even cheaper !

    In the past I have found it easier to phone. Some one else does the work.

    I joined bon voyage this year for our return trip to Santander as the saving on fares (not to mention on meals) was more than the cost of registration plus one year's subscription. Not sure if I will renew for next year as we will probably revert to our
    Ouistreham crossing and wouldn't save enough on that to make it worth while.

    ...As you are already registered (on the Spanish routes) you may find that you can transfer over to the French route by only paying next year's annual fee.  We used to belong to it when it was based on owning a home in France (we had to show our deeds to
    prove it...) but in recent years we have let it lapse.

    Thanks everyone. We paid for the Club Voyage membership, thats what its called now. You choose Spain or France. As most of our crossings are to France, thats what we got. £70 one-off  join fee, £70 a year. 30% saving on French trips, 10% on Spanish. 2 bookings
    next year (3 French,1 Spanish) have already saved more than the fees, so 10% off food, and a breakfast voucher each on overnight trips will be a bonus! Plus our next bookings for late summer will be a bonus.

    Write your comments here...is the £70 joining fee and £70 annual fee per person?
