To clarify the new procedure for ordering Camping Cheques I rang the number on the back of the book +33385722995 and was told that I have to load my Gold Card with cash. This is the French office no.
As I had booked and paid for the ferry in conjunction with Camping Cheques with a Brittany Ferriy crossing through the Caravan and Motorhome Club they allowed me to buy the extra paper Cheques required.
Just had my BT telephone bill this week and I see the original call to Camping Travel Club cost me £10-15. Is their no a Premium call charge. Anyone else had the same problem?
Presumably the CAMC is the only place Cheques can be obtained from in this country now.

Your call to a +33 number is a call to France and it sounds as though you were paying a full BT price per minute for the call.

If you Google Cheap Calls to France it will give you guidance of how to ring French landline numbers for 1p. per minute.

Many thanks. Have been ordering Camping Cheques from the French site for several years as the exchange rate was until last year a great advantage. Better check your suggestion.

BT rate is 75p/min for France. You must have been on there for about 20mins. Other providers are cheaper. Plusnet for example 26p/min daytime rate. You could have emailed them.

It might have been cheaper to use your mobile?

2.5 p per minute on skype phoned them yesterday about their phone app which still has 2016 dates and sites which have course changed, the operator said they will be updating the app at the beginning of June??. Seems a bit late for the start of the season.
