We did ours a couple of weeks ago for August.  I just went on the tesco website, put in the numbers of the vouchers we had, they e-mailed me a token number and I phoned eurotunnel and booked...it was so easy - first time I've done it.

We are thinking of booking eurotunnel for May/June but are not absolutely sure on dates. Is there an amendment fee if we decide to change the date later?

None whatsoever! If you do change bookings, then all you could have to pay is the difference between what you have paid for your existing booking and the new booking.

I've changed a few times in the past, and for a booking which cost £122 (£2 with Tesco vouchers!), changed to one costing £129, I just paid the £7 difference.

I've already changed my May/June booking for next year, and as the price was the same I paid exactly nothing

Just be very aware on how much ticket prices can go up near the time of the trip if the crossing gets booked up.

I looked into changing one of my dates 1 week before the trip  2 years ago -

I had booked a return crossing for Aug  in January Approx cost for car/roofbox & trailer £240

When I tried to change the outward crossing a week before my trip they wanted  an extra £150 for the crossing.

Eurotunnel put the prices up as the crossings get full, just like the airlines.

I Just wanted people to be aware of how much these tickets can go up if you have to change last minute, the Olympics were on at the time, so maybe thats why the price difference was so much for me.

When we arrived back at Calais a day early we managed to get on an early trip back. Having driven on to the train as the last vehicle on the carriage it transpired we were a foot too long and they couldn't shut the doors. So we had to back off and wait on the platform for the next one. Managed to perform the maneuver in one - not without a little perspiration.
