New Booking System

Does anyone know how to leave a club site review on the new systems site page (not on the old system page)I can't see anything 

Actually, for their own sites, C&CC charge a Non Refundable deposit.  That is why we rarely use them.  My problem with the new system is that it does not suit us as going or not going away has to be flexible.  I think that we are on the verge of giving up altogether.

Can we have the old system back . Please

We are going to trial a new method of using Club Sites possibly next week. We might continue to use them, but not book them. Not for the faint hearted or those who prefer/ have to have the security of knowing a pitch is there, but if the new deposit scheme is doing what folks seem to think it will, then we should be able to simple roll up and ask for a pitch on the day. I will check site availability as much as it allows me, and it will be mid week. There will be a Plan B backup as well. 

Brue, thanks for the mention of discounts, not seen/heard anything about this. Fingers crossed they come up with something that suits🤞

Doesn't the C&CC have a similar system except that they have a 31 day deadline for cancellation without losing your deposit rather  than the more generous 21 days of the CMC? I have no idea how easy it is to get a refund before you get to the 31 day mark? 

For the last 15 or so years (since we last had deposits) booking a CMC has been very easy and risk free. That has now ended and the club have come in line with the majority of the touring campsite industry. From your point of view there will hopefully be more availability when you are ready to commit to a booking so you may be able to make decisions much closer to the time of going away, so maybe not all is lost?

In my mind there is a difference between speculating and making a commitment.

My point was PD nothing has changed for myself and a lot of others. We will still book ahead and cancel / amend in the event of unforeseen circumstances. The only difference is that we may now loose a deposit. Almost certainly a significant number of the cancellations / amendments the club used to justify deposits were of that nature. Yes there would have been the deliberately speculative ones as well, but as they had no way of differentiating they were just been lumped together into one figure.

They could shoot themselves in the foot with that one

 I speculate that I will be alive, fit, and well enough to attend at the booking - yet I have to make a financial committment to The Caravan "Club".   Does my deposit get refunded when they resell the pitch I've not been able to use . . . ?

In view of the large increase in fuel, was it really expected that site fees would not go up? Surely all sites will be putting up their prices and/or charging extra for electricty, not just the CMHC sites!
