CAMC have put up the cost of wifi on its sites by 10% on the annual charge to £27.50. Have I missed something as there doesn’t appear to be anything in the way of explanation on the website or magazine?. Are they hoping that no-one will notice?

Posted on 30/04/2019 08:38 by brueI can't recall paying for wi fi on other sites although many operate free hot spot areas eg in the cafes or near the reception.
We don't use club wi fi it is outdated compared to other types of use.

Last week we were on the C&CC site at Bala. Yes, the WiFi was free - but it was appallingly slow. It's a small (45 pitches) site and was almost empty. No Hotspots as far as I know. We got less than 1 mbps, But there was good 4g (EE) so were happy to use our phones.
Not as fast as at home!

Posted on 30/04/2019 10:49 by Rocky 2 bucketsIt’s what suits JV, I relish a good coffee & would pay more for a salted caramel machiato. . .& I have too😊. For £1.50 what you bought would not be anything but chicory I reckon, but if you’re not a coffee person-so be it. . .Tis life👍🏻

Yes Steve, we've only been there once and queuing to use the phone box when needing frequent contact at home was a big drawback. Also the drop in the CC wifi signal when everyone came back to the site in the evenings.
We've stayed in places where's there's no signal for anything, no wifi, phones, TV and radio. Sometimes a hotspot might be available as in the Cairngorms but not on the end of the Mull of Kyntyre!
We live in the SW, an area where wifi is slow with no sign of improvements and also phone signals can vary. Due to this we've opted for our own wi-fi rather than share and pay with the club provision.
If some are happy with what's provided and are prepared to pay then at least it's available if needed but it's not for us any more.

Posted on 30/04/2019 09:44 by SteveLMorris Leisure still charge for their WiFi, according to their web site. Haven't stayed for a while but it was about £10 for a week. You were also unable to try before you bought in.
you can get a signal at Carburton Lodge entrance while having their bacon butties
