We are enjoying going to France and have heard that you can use a Frequent traveller discount but on their website there is no info about this for motor homes.  I have tried emailing them but the link doesn't seem to work.  Has anyone signed up to this?

    If you are going to use the tunnel a lot, It may be worth looking at what perks you get if you have their shares.

    If you have any Tesco vouchers, theses can be used to travel on the tunnel, but they are stopping them shortly (not sure when) . Exchange £10 Clubcard boost voucher for £30 worth of Eurotravel

    Tesco are not planning to stop the voucher scheme it is their in-house Clubcard boost offers they are withdrawing. You will still be able to use your vouchers as at present.

    The link to frequent traveller is here:

    https://www.eurotunnel.com/uk/tickets/types/frequent-traveller/

    In brief the features are:

    You cannot pay with tesco vouchers

    You have to buy 5 returns (10 trips) up front £430.

    You can have two named people on the account so can share with a friend but you have to name them at opening the account.

    It costs £43 per trip and you can get on most trains but not at the busiest times during peak periods.

    If taking a motorhome there is a supplement of £11 per trip and for caravans it is £43 per trip, payable when booking.

    All journeys have to be completed within a year.

    We've just signed up to the Frequent Traveller scheme, along with my son as a 'partner'.  We costed four one-way crossings and the total cost was nearly the same as the Frequent Traveller total - so now we've got six extra crossings for not very much at
    all.

    We have a holiday home in France, and my sons go camping and snowboarding in France, so between us we will certainly benefit from the reduced costs.
