Hi
Very successfully and happily used an aprr tag in France in August and money came off our card in September. I keep getting emails in French saying I think I need to give card details as my one is expiring. I have asked them to mail me in English as I really struggled to translate it and I still can't make head no tail of it. I thought inbound only be charged for th months I used it so why do I owe them a further 12 euros?
I would like to keep it and use it next year too.

Can anyone explain to me how it works?

Thanks

The only thing I can assume is if your C/card has expired you may have to pay a late payment charge of 12 euros ?

I was charged this last year as my C/card had expired.my fault,so informed them of my new card details and all is well now.

Have you paid for your return journey toll fees yet ? (normally comes out of your C/card on the 20th of the following the month).

Andy.

Thanks. HAve translated and seen I need to pay 12£ which I have and I think it must be because of a late payment somehow??
Not sure how that happened.
Does anyone know if there are ongoing charges with this tag?

Hi hercules,

No, no ongoing payments.

You only pay for the month you travel in.( if you use toll roads in August travelling to your destination & return, then you pay 2 euros + toll charges, if you return,say September you pay another 2 euros + toll charges,)

If your not sure of the 12 euros you have been charged, then email them, ask for the answer in ENGLISH or as Oliver  Day has suggested translate in google.

Also if you sign-in on your Aprr account, it should say something on there.

Andy

Oh it works in that it produces English words, but often produces utter rubbish and it has that in common with most on-line translation sites. I doubt you would pass even GCSE French using it.

Well I've never had trouble understanding hundreds of site reviews that have been translated from French, Dutch, German, Italian or Spanish using Google.

It doesn't cost anything and for translations that are straightforward it's better than paying a translator £25+ per hours work.

As for passing GCSE French - It would be a great help but you can't take computers into the exam!

Seems we'll have to differ on that then. Given the context of reviews it seems to help but with an official document or letter such as one the OP has it should not be relied upon.

If you could forward the adress of a translator who only charges £25 an hour I could farm out some of my work and make a handsome profit for doing nowt.

Well it seems that the OP managed and if you know the context you shouldn't have a problem.

It's funny that the only people who knock computer translations are those that are losing business when people use them.

Regarding the charges you'll notice a "+" sign after the "£25". So not sure on the exact amount but not far off the going rate. I suggest you use a computer search engine (perhaps google - wonderful tool) to search available skills in your area.
