The Club have released more details of the new Booking System here
There are still finer details still to be arrived but the link (thanks Harry) sets out how the new system will work.
I have closed the previous thread on when we will get details of the new booking system and opened this one to allow comments specifically on the new system rather than discussing what they might be.

Posted on 13/02/2022 09:46 by KjellNNOH does our bookings with CCC, she cannot get it to work either.
She just went to their website and a page came up ... check availability and book.....but it will not do anything unless she enters dates. I think there must be a different page she should be on, but she cannot find it.
Can you post a link to the correct page?

You start off on the >Late Availablity< page, quite why it is called that I don't know because you can check availabilty some way into the future. Enter the region you are interested in and your outfit details and search. From the list of sites select one of interest by clicking on "book this site"and a menu comes up regarding your choiice of pitch types. Select what you require and a calender will appear, scroll the calendar to check availabilty for the dates your want.
You might also find the >FAQs< on the New web site useful.

i used to check the camc late availability page for existing bookings near the arrival date because it gave an indication of pitchs still available and helped with planning arrival times e.g. try to be first there or take it easy because lots of pitches still vacant. However this information is no longer available which is a backwards step.

The present system is unique in that deposits are not made, this is attractive to some members who appreciate flexible options, we have never made speculative bookings but have appreciated being able to make amendments and even change our minds destination wise.
When deposits are required we will use more alternative sites, however whether it will improve weekend availability I very much doubt it.
The admin costs of making refunds and the conflict that may result with members could have a significant negative financial impact in addition to the loss of income from members using alternative competitors sites.
I do though think the cancellation policy was too short and should have been at least 3 weeks as this was likely to be abused.
Only time will tell,
