Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 3,088 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Travelers frequently share that booking online is remarkably straightforward, while warmly praising the helpful staff members who provide clear directions and make the check-in process completely smooth. Consumers also really love the wonderful convenience of catching earlier crossings whenever they happen to arrive early at the terminal. However, some reviewers noted frustrating delays, disorganized terminal setups, and poor queue management at passport control and security areas. A few other people also felt that there were several noticeable safety issues, frustrating communication gaps, and difficult logistical challenges when loading heavy motorbikes during wet weather conditions.

Easy to book and use. Depending upon time/date of travel it can be reasonably priced too. Most of the time we have travelled on time or near to. Do not like the food and drink prices in the terminals... See more

A pleasant experience for a change

Check-in and both sets of customs went smoothly, both with short queues, and our train left on time. So much better than the last couple of times when we've had half hour queues at customs and hour long delays for the train.

Convenient and quick

Convenient and quick, although we suffered a 30-odd minute delay. Needed to speak to an advisor during the booking process and he was excellent.

Went to France yesterday and a hour delay because the trains wasn’t even 1/4 full
Come back to day. I’m not allowed on train early because I bought a day return ticket

I’m sueing le shuttle for health and safety issues as the internal door didn’t lock or even close.
Can’t wait for my company solicitors to get their teeth in to this. Shower of shit once again.

Speed of crossing is good

Speed of crossing is good. Let down on the French side by unclear boarding instructions. Different train options been given to different parties with same ticket type and train time. Trains are showing their age. Nowhere near as smooth as my first crossing many years ago!

Time and time again you get there and then they move you round to the departure queue then notify you an hour delay. Not acceptable. There is never any recompense but hey you arrive late and you have to purchase another ticket. The price has gone up as the service goes down!

Beware when booking

Beware when booking, I ended up paying twice because the payment page didn’t give me a booking reference but returned to the payment screen. Because there was no confirmation email I assumed the payment had timed out and made a second one. The payments were only 10 minutes apart but I didn’t receive a full refund which I think is very harsh
