APRR Telepeage Billing Question

[andrewrob]

I'm looking at ordering two of these for a trip down to Antibes.
Does anyone know when you get billed for the tolls, is it end of the month or 30 days after the toll road used etc?

Here the link to the site, its the liber-t Balade I'll be ordering.

If you look at here: http://www.telepeagepourtous.fr/fr/particulier/vos...

it says "at the end of the following month", which is a bit strange.

I can't really remember but when I had one, I think it was simply at the end of the month.

Thanks good to know, reading up a while ago these came out as one of the best companies to use, if anyone else can recommend a better one or share experiences with this one it would be much appreciated

I have this one.
IIRC when you use it the billing account opens for the month. Then all tolls are added to the monthly account up to the end of the month.
Normally debited during the month following.

Thanks for the info, I'll get it ordered today

Been using one of these for years - very useful!

Unless you use the same route very regularly the offers are pretty much irrelevant aside where you only get billed the monthly charge for the months you use it.

Make sure you position yourself fairly far in advance for the "T" gates - when there's a lot of traffic you may well be held up by traffic in the other lanes...then cackle as you swan past hundreds of cars queueing in the CB or cashier lanes. I've not looked back since getting one of these, weekends on the pistes often culminate with bottlenecks at the end of the weekend at the Péages unless you have a Telepeage box.

I normally receive the bill at the end of the following month. Bon voyage!

I'll also add that usually, Telepage gates are on the left of all the other gates, and are highlighted in orange.

An advice too: If there is a "T" light + a green arrow, then the gate is also open to people without Telebadge.
If there is only a "T", then you're sure to not stay stuck behind somebody looking for his debit card or his ticket

Sadly as we only use the A28 from Le Havre/Caen to Tours, we have no need. Never seen a queue of more than one car!

Wish I had known that a few years ago!

Sorry to open up an old thread, but I have a Telepeage unit and will be travelling over christmas but now my credit card details have changed since the last time I used it.

Anyone know how to go about (as a non-french speaker!) updating my billing details?

Try sending an email in English to the address on their website. My French isn't great and I had a quick response when ever I contacted them (their response was also in English)
