Was on DFDS web site this afternoon and cannot believe the difference in cost re motorhome lengths !!
Normal charge is up to 7 metre's (£101) then it jumps to 10 metre's and it more than doubles in price £240) !!!
Called them to ask why they want to charge £139 pounds more got a cheeky ref on the phone telling me
sorry that rules are the rules !!
So they have lost the sale as although it costs a bit more I will be using Eurotunnel from now on !!
Has anyone else being caught out by this scam ???

I agree with you it seems an unreasonable increase, but not a scam, just their choice, albeit a rather odd one

we love the tunnel, and even feel slightly sorry for the smaller motorhomes paying the same as us :)(y)

I wasnt caught out by it. nor was i caught out by their cheeky efforts to raise the price after i had checked it by using their cookies and it raised by 50 nicker. I did ring up to complain that my mate was given a a different price at exactly the same time on a computer next to mine with the same details and i got told "Consumer choice" when i threatened to go with someone else.
Needless to say i said "Danish Vocabulary" and then a couple of choice words and am going with P and O which is somewhat similar to what i told them to go and do.

I suspect my motorhome has a black mark on DFDS

S*%$ happens
