It’s quite simple really since the Eurostar company has introduced a charge of £3 per credit card transaction for all bookings by phone, at the station or on the internet. The internet is still the most convenient and easiest way to book Eurostar deals, and sometimes cheaper, but never more costly than the other methods described. Charging for credit card use is a practice that is increasingly common with all kinds of travel companies, including airlines, someof whom charge more than the £3 and add other extras as well. They all do this because the credit card companies themselves levy a charge per transaction, which is picked up by the vendor.

The way to save £3 on Eurostar deals is to use a bank debit card instead when making the internet booking. Cards such as Maestro and Visa Debit Card come in two sorts – bank account direct debit cards and pre-paid debit cards, which are equivalent to electronic cash. By using any kind of bank debit card instead of a credit card the £3 fee is waived, reflecting the much lower costs levied by the banks for this type of payment card so you get your Eurostar deals for £3 cheaper every time.
