This link was posted in the General Chat section but I think it would be good repost here as a separate discussion. https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/uk-holidays/useful-information/arrival-efficiency-trial-at-clachan/

The Club are going to trial the use of ANPR from 24th August at the Clachan site in Scotland to automate arrivals with the likelihood it will be rolled out to more sites if successful. Some of you may have already used commercial sites where ANRP is employed to access a site. All the details are quite extensively covered in the link. Members will have to make sure their registration number is registered when booking and apparently payment will be taken on the morning of arrival.

I’m told there is an announcement in the latest edition of the magazine which I assume is September's. I’ve tried to view it online but, shock and horror, there’s a website problem preventing its opening😤.

It all seems a bit last minute to me.

No.

Will staff no longer have a job?

This is a trial to assess improvements to member experience and will enable our staff to be more available on-site and do other important jobs. This is not about cutting jobs, it's about making better use of staff time

I presume because it's a basic £17 all in site it's also  slightly less complicated payment wise.

I eventually found the announcement in the Sept magazine via the app but it took some searching to get there.

Hmm, it says the trial will be later this year 🤷🏻‍♂️

Every staff reduction "realignment" programme I have ever come across or been involved in starts with similar weasel words 😉🤣.

But this isn't being labelled as a staff reduction realignment programme has it, just the introduction of ANPR. I'm not sure where you got all that from at all?

It's puzzling that in the recent weeks you posted maybe ANPR is the answer and numerous posts before on how the club should get updated with modern technology similar to other non club sites wherever these are, and now the club has you've posted twice with some objections and/or possible problems? Guess the club can't do right whatever they do?

 Non ehu £10  per night so fairly straightforward ( I think after a quick trial booking!?)
