Would you like  to expand on that JVB?!  All businesses need to cover costs or they will fail. As far as CAMC is concerned it is a not for profit business but in reality they have to make profits to re-invest in the business to keep it viable and afloat. Every single UK business is faced with increasing costs. Obviously we don't know how the rise in site fees was calculated but we'd soon complain if we started to see sites closing which they could if they become too expensive to operate.

A little bit off topic but on the subject of charging for electricity usage perhaps the club could slowly move to metered electric by putting in meters firstly on seasonal pitches, and see how that works. There are many sites that offer seasonal pitches but only a relatively few in number on each site, so the cost of installation would be relatively low. I appreciate that this would necessitate a couple of changes, in that the seasonal pitches would have to be selected before hand by the club to facilitate the fitting of meters on those pitches, and then a pro rata reduction in the seasonal pitch price to match that charged for a non-EHU pitch. Should not all the seasonal pitches available be booked then those members who would like the choice of a metered pitch could use them.

Not with this club which I assume is the reason I’ve not had the mail. However, I and others could book this very evening and not know of the impending increase.

Surely everyone should have been made aware by now? Mails begging for our support during lockdown found their way to everyone within the space of just a few days but not so the news on price rises.🤷🏻‍♂️

Me neither, perhaps because we've used up all our CC site bookings for the year on our current trip.😄

The club has a web site and all this type of information could be posted on it.

David, don’t knock it, it’s a decent cup of proper coffee, surprisingly so. 

Neither the website nor communication skills are strong points of this club.

Well I would say personally that it has and they have fully complied with their T&Cs and given anyone enough information to decide what to do. 

I have received the email so it has informed me about price rise (at worst £2.70) and while I can't speak for anyone else it would appear that it has for a number of others?

They haven't given me the option to cancel (option b) agreed but under existing rules I consider that unnecessary as I can now cancel now if I wish (I personally won't) and it would currently still be more than the 'three days'.

And even then they could be following option c:

c) where the revised indicative price is higher or less than the price stated at the time of booking we may leave your booking unchanged.

I assume this option leaves it up to you to decide what to do?

So yes I do think the club has followed its T&C. Others may disagree and may want to wait to see which sites and prices are affected and that's their choice,

Also notice the T&C's state In such circumstances, the following may apply:

I concede that statement appears far too loose and option c may appear to be a 'get out of jail card' and doesn't require the club to do anything about offering the option to cancel when they raise prices but they are both there and anyone booking has agreed to be bound by them.

A numbers of posts appear to have made their minds up one way or the other.
