France toll tags and UK bank account

We use ATMB have for years, not had any problems with getting them to accept our CC details. 

I use Emovis Tag UK. They have an office in Harrogate - UK call centre - 01423299017.

best of luck

For years I had a SANEF/Emovis Tag and you set up an account in the UK as mentioned by Toby. All in English BTW. Charges were just debited to my bank account when I used the Tag. You don't have to worry about your CC going out of date

Surely you would be better off using a credit card rather than a bank card and with a CC like the Halifax Clarity card its likely to be cheaper?

I registered with Bip & go before my holiday in France last year and had no problems registering or using it for the 6 weeks i was in France. I'm off to France again in a few weeks and after checking my account everything is good to go.

As DK we use Emovis. Account set up in UK using DD (with all the usual guarantees) on our bank account. Had it since 2019 and no issues so far.

Yup SANEF/Emovis Tag had it for years, they even send you an email when they think your battery might need replacing, or you can check it in your account online, only downside is you have to send the unit back to them and you receive a new one with fully charged battery, you cannot change the battery your self but battery life is approx 7 years

have one for Spain also

Phone them - number is on website.

Autoroutes without toll booths and barriers are being introduced in France - a “free flow” system.

The new west - east  A79 is the first operating in that way already. Numberplate recognition cameras automatically charge the toll fee to a vehicle which has a tag on board, otherwise you have to stop and pay at a machine in a service area, and otherwise you are fined. So get a tag - any tag- they all work.

The A13 is said to be the next to be converted to the new system, and others gradually to follow.

ET, can you now get a tag for over 3.5 tons? (class 3) Last time I tried I had no luck, not that I was too bothered because I tend to avoid French Autoroutes unless to get around a major cities like New Orleans. If they are doing away with booths then I may have to find a source of a Class 3 tag even if only occasionally used.

It is worth noting that in many other countries where you need a tag you have to pay in advance of use, you cannot pay in arrears but you can get refunds of unused credit. This is best done with a credit card at designated points.
