I assume it’s this address you are using, pref-contact-bin@vaucluse.gouv.fr
This is all I know about Vaucluse currently.
The préfecture said it was putting in place an accelerated process for Article 50 renewals, and specified that people should email their request to pref-contact-bin@vaucluse.gouv.fr.
Thank you for your support. Yes, I have tried these addresses. I keep checking the Prefecture website and so far the online renewal site is not there. I will try to patienter a bit longer…
It’s so frustrating we are seeing it all over Art50 where there are still many prefectures with no process in place. You could always send them a LRAR, but bear in mind that you only need get an application in, yes I appreciate this is difficult, but should it only happen just before your card expires, your CdS is actually valid for further 3 months after expiry.

I wonder what happened, back in the day, when no-one had printers, computers or smartphones.
Not very ecological of the authorities to ask for all this paper.
On a similar note, Leclerc asks we should eschew till receipts, but if I do ask for one, as I did today, it’s as long as my arm for just 5 purchases. So not to save the planet, just to save them money.
You can get your receipts emailed for you for Leclerc.
I’m told it is the law that they have to ask each time if you want the card receipt, it used to irritate me ‘till I heard that, but I always demand them but I get my own back by always telling the same joke ‘I need it at my age because I have forgotten what I have spent as soon as I leave the store’. I am sure it must irritate them but only one or 2 have stopped asking. 
And it doesn’t save the planet as the millions of people stocking the receipts in computer storage has a big impact.
That sounds hopeful. Mind you, if I have my way, I’ll be in a different dept by the 2-months-to-go time… dunno where. Am looking …
It would be something of a grunt to change the address of my card, as I did when I moved from La Manche to Calvados and then have to submit the renewal from wherever.
Maybe it would be better to stick with what I have now? And change after moving?
I hope the RdV system is a lot more organised than the original WARP procedure. The online submission was a breeze - chapeau! - but after the RdV at the Prefecture where all my docs were approved, some weeks later I got a peremptory demand to submit them all again by post within two weeks or my application would be annulled!
Applied in March 2021, rec’d card 16/Dec.
The process will be pretty much the same wherever you go, there are some prefectures that are not going to use the DS system, they have already stated this and have a process in place.
If you move you have 3 months to report the address change which is now on the ANEF system, if you don’t have an account you must create one but whatever you do DON’T sign in with FranceConnect this is one system that really does have a bug and your new place of birth will probably be Guernsey .. lol.
If you move you can get the address change and renewal done at the same time if your Art50 is due in 2 months after you move.
Let me know when you do and I’ll let you know what the process is for your new prefecture.
This happened to a friend that changed addresses, not only the N° d’étranger wasn’t reconisedin the online system but apparently she was born in the channel isles not London. It was sorted after a meeting at the Prefecture in Yonne & then the different Prefectures sorted it out themselves.
I do both.
Till spits seem to come out only on the paper ones with the odd useful offer.
That’s because you have to create a simple username and password account first and not use FC, even ANEF tell you not to use FC, why they haven’t removed this facility I have no idea.
However, if their card number wasn’t recognised it means that it wasn’t registered on the Prefectures database initially. I’ve seen a huge amount of these.
“back in the day” we asked at the Mairie and they would take photocopies of our original documents and officially “stamp & sign” each copy to say it was an authentic copy of the original… 
Not everyone has printer, computer or smartphone even now… our Mairie provides a service to its people depending on their needs.
Madame la Maire was very helpful to us yesterday, witnessing my wife’s signature to keep NS&I happy.
We’re going to stretch ourselves tonight and go to the local council meeting to see what’s going on
I used to go regularly. Had to sit quietly at the side of the room and not say a word.
Still go along if there is a subject on their Agenda which interests me.
After the meeting, sometimes I’d just slip away and sometimes I’d be included in conversations and invited to join in the “after-session” drinks and nibbles (well, this is France )
Is there ever any public event that doesn’t have drinks and nibbles associated with it? 
Kim, thanks for the info and offer to help. If you don’t already have a halo, wings & a harp, they will be forthcoming … 
I’m not clear about which dept has the bug - FRConnect or ANEF.? A slight case of “Eats shoots & leaves” 
And I don’t know what ANEF is.
When I changed addresses on my CdS I seem to remember I somehow found my way to a gouv.fr page that asked me that was what I needed to do. I assembled the obligatory chapter & verse, went to the Prefecture at Caen with docs and lo! weeks later an amended card arr’d.
Hi Kim
we are dept 34; I think Bezier was the place we collected our cards last time.
is it the simple online process that you mention for us too ?
sorry, I am not on Facebook.
thanks for your help
The procedure for Aude (11) has appeared on the Aude local government website.
Thank you Hair Bear, OH is very grateful. 
It’s good that you can start four months before the expiry date rather than two. It doesn’t look complicated and I’m hoping we can avoid multiple trips to Carcassonne this time.
