aunt sally Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Hi, does anyone know the correct procedure for paying carpark charges when leaving the airport? after five days. Last time we had difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elamessa Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 When you leave the airport, you place your parking ticket in the machine opposite the terminal building and it will tell you how much you owe, you then pay using € or card. simples Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 We struggled to get out of the long stay car park because the machines didn't like our British cards. We made a mental note to take more cash next time.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoddy Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 It isn't hard if you have a French card. If you can't scrape the cash together you can get a taxi to the nearest cashpoint, get some money out, drive back to the airport, pay the taxi and then feed the machine.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sid Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I have a French bank card and normally it works at the car park ticket machine at Limoges. On two occasions however it has refused to accept the card. There is a manned cark parking counter inside the car hire building, directly opposite the terminal and next to the two machines, and if you ask there they will take payment in cash or produce the small handheld card reader which always seems to work.Incidentally there is another car park machine in the main terminal, in the corner on the right as you look at the building from the road, and this is usually quiet when there is a queue at the two machines outside.

Hoddy Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 You could Krusty but if that doesn't take British cards either and if there is no one at the parking desk and your request for information when it might be manned is greeted by a shrug, what then ?I repeat my advice to the OP. Take plenty of cash.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardian Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 All much simpler down here.With typical Provencal pragmatism, the barriers in and out of the car park have both been busted (as in driven through) for months. Not the first time either. It's probably seen as cheaper to leave them be rather than pay to get them fixed.[Www] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
