As I've said before, it's a great scheme and works well for us. Getting a fixed price crossing for the van and occupants for £54 each way in August is pretty good value in my opinion. And we don't bother to book the return until we're ready to come back - same fixed price. Ultimate flexibility! (y)

I must admit if we didn't get 3 x face value on our Tesco vouchers I'd certainly make use of the Eurotunnel FTS instead, but it only costs us around £50 in vouchers for a return trip (£108 with the FTS) however we do obviously have to book our outward and return crossings to use them, and they are amendable subject to any extra cost of 'new' time/day being paid for.

I suppose if we had something we wanted to spend the Tesco vouchers on instead, such as when they did a 'double up' (not that they will any more I believe) then it might have been more tempting to use the FTS at £108 return for the extra flexiblity.

If anyone wants four in the next year then we might be interested in one (our first trip top Europe with the motorhome!)

Yes I know, been going abroad with our pooches for 11 years now ... not happy about the 'rip off' dog costs but can't do anything about it.

We used to use Tesco vouchers for the tunnel, and it's a good system if you shop in the store frequently and use their credit card etc. But we find the flexibility of the FTS is really valuable. And, in fact, we don't actually shop much at Tesco now, and have just decided to stop using the Tesco credit card for the time being. Our cashback credit cards are the preferred option.

Hoping to find someone to share a frequent traveller ticket for the tunnel. We could use 3 and need to start mid august. So anyone interested would need to take their 2 return crossings between late aug 2016 and aug 2017. we have done the scheme this year and for us it has worked well. Please pm if you are interested, thanks,

Thanks, have just signed up with jazzledog so now sorted.

Just for info you dont have to buy just 10 singles, it can be any number from 10 to 150.

Would have been nice to be able to say thanks to judgemental who got us started on the tunnel.

We partnered with a Fun member for this deal last year. Having now used up our share of tickets, we're looking for a new partner.

We need to open the account immediately which means the crossings have to be made within 12 months.

We're happy to take either 4 or 6 of the tickets i.e. 2 or 3 return crossings.

Please PM if interested.

I wasn't quick enough! If anyone else wants to join with us for one of these, we could make an arrangement with you - we would like 2 returns per year...

Hi Funman, I'm already planning two trips this year, the first at Easter, so would be happy to take 3 as I'm sure I could use the third. Let me know if your still interested.
