New ACO experience
« on: April 01, 2022, 07:36:51 pm »
No April fool: This morning I sent an e-mail to the ACO ticket office asking about the campsite opening times. Based on my previous experience when communicating with them I didn’t expect much. But now I’m sitting here, shivering and deeply shocked!!! They replied within less than 1 hour!!! And furthermore, they even came back with a precise and useful answer!!! This has never happened before! Something must have changed, probably they have hired new staff. Or sacked the ticket office manager.

« Hello, The Bleu Nord Campsite for the 24 Hours will open non-stop from Friday 3rd June 9.00 am to Monday, 13th June noon. »

cut 'n' paste from their website - "Open non-stop from Friday, 3rd June 9.00 am to Monday, 13th June noon." I think it applies to all campsites

They do seem to be more helpful and knowledgeable this year.

Although they could not help me when I wanted to buy GS tickets only - because we already had GE tickets.
I mean, what an utterly ridiculous policy where you can only buy GS tickets if combined with a GE!!

 ???
I wonder how long this restriction is going to last once the event week is happening?

Baldrick, my Lord! But I can change it to Ploppy if it'll make things easier.

Agree, totally stupid.
I used to buy my GS tickets when they became available, then get my GE at the circuit to spread the cost.

On the spreading the cost when I bought my tickets I was able to spread the cost over 3 installments at no extra cost.  No option to select a date they came out the bank though - not being the day before pay day would have been helpful!
