The Robdogs!
I was a member for several years around the turn of the century when it was a fraction of that price, and you got some free breakdown cover (which I actually took advantage of one year!), with the addition of ticket discounts you even turned a profit in some years. |

I chased up in January (expired last October) - reply from ACO was -
"Your membership expires in october but we confirm you that your services are available. We have changed our hardware and we post you soon your renewal. We apology for this delay." Heard nothing since .... |

Well, I've phoned three times and each time was told the office is closed. Perhaps they only opened for a short time this morning. I'll try again later.

Only two entry tickets? It used to be two discounted campsite tickets and six entry tickets!

Just renewed.... Once I did get through, It was simple. I was told that the best time is between 12 noon and 2 pm (French time, presumably).

They gave me the same as I had last year (and for many years). €109. In fact, I wasn't offered anything else....

That said, I believe the new membership only allows you two discounted entry tickets, where the old type allowed six, albeit with a smaller discount. |

From what I can see, some of our group who have been accustomed to getting their entry tickets at ACO members prices on the backs of mine and Andrew's memberships, will be paying full price... |

I just phoned, and the lady 'Marine' told me my renewal would be the same as last year - €109.

They have certainly been a lot better at responding to emails, especially the lady 'Marine'. When I renewed they gave me a new membership number which I didn't want, but they've now managed to reinstate my old one. They've also said that they are going to send me something in the post as a gift for my long membership.... (23 years).

Same price as last year / same benefits. So, if your membership has expired it looks like it is down to you to renew. |

Exactly. I phoned. Spoke to Marine, and was renewed in 2-3 minutes.

your comments made me realise that i had still not seen my renewal go through, sent email and they phoned back today, they were going to charge me the full 109 euro but when i questioned they told me that it would still only entitle me to two tickets at 40% discount and not 6 tickets at 25%, could not be bothered to argue so renewed at 60 to save me 49 euro's, also kept old number which i had had for about 29 years i think.

Does ACO themselves actually know how there new membership works? I doubt that, even the website is confusing regarding membership.
That said, I still didn't get my offer by letter or mail for renewal. I would think in these unsertain times the money one gets from membership would be very welcome. |
