Yes, there lies an inconsistency. If you look further back I am sure I was calling thetrainline.com theticketline.com too. I am a freelance designer, working at my own office: Trying to complete my own work and trying to fit in responses on this forum has inevitably led to the odd name...

Please, I have never offered any inconsistencies in my storey: 1. The start of this thread begun with me under the impression the x/c ticket was the original. 2. At some point somebody highlighted the x/c ticket was one the conductor must have printed out. 3. I then phoned up...

It wouldn't have been a problem, any ticket conductor with an ounce of decancy would have agreed to charging me from Newcastle to York. bOb, I think from all this post it can be assumed the original did not say X/S on it. Who knows where that original now resides. The total amount paid...

A std ticket to London from Leeds costs way more than the petrol. Also what is going to happen when petrol cars are no longer the common thing and electric or the fuel cell are? How will trains be able to compete, especially when they have already marginalised themselves? --- old post above ---...

The £28.10 was the total fair with a YP railcard, bought from the trainline.com and collected from a ticket machine in leeds station. I also did not sign the fine, does this not count for anything?

Very funny. I have been driving for 5years now and so far, touch wood, have never had any sort of ticket. And with respect to the comment regarding "be carefull where you park", I was visiting friends and the parking outside their house is free. Would I be wrong in recalling an article from...

Yes I do remember saying that if she was correct then I should only be paying for a new ticket from newcastle to york but she refused to let me and wrote out the whole thing. I don't think i will be using the trains very much in the future for journeys like that. It's just a joke...

Also does anybody know who deals with the actual appeals? Is there a number i can call to clear this up?

After you spotted that the ticket was not the original, I phoned up thetrainline.com again. I spoke to a different person this time who said that ticket was only valid on a transpennine train (but an open return). What must have happened here is the ticket conductor did not return to me the...

Ah for crying out loud. I definatley showed the newcastle to leeds ticket to the woman as she looked at it and said i was on the wrong train. This is why she wrote this notice. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- oh, and by theticketline.com i meant thetrainline.com

Flipping heck! Ok, I have no idea where the outgoing ticket is or when I disposed of it. From what you have just said it sounds to me like the ticket conductor gave to me this printed ticket I have scanned in and kept the original. There is no way I would have thrown it away. Also, I phoned...

I did had my Y.P. card with me yes. I have noticed that printing date thing my self and I don't understand it either, all the tickets were printed on the same day. The reason the return is stamped is because the conductor on the York-Leeds train did so. Also I purchased the tickets on the net...

Ah yup, got it now. It's uploaded, i was going for the url thing

I know it's crazy, you couldn't make this up if you tried. As a result of this she (the ticket conductor) then tried to make me pay another £40 for a new newcastle to leeds ticket. I had paid £28.10 with my YP railcard via the net. So quite rightly (in my opinion) I refused to pay, she then...

OK thanks for the responses, the reason I asked was: A short while ago I purchased an open ended return from leeds to newcastle on the thetrainline.com. The 1st leg up to newcastle was fine. The next day around 3pm on the sunday i went to return back to leeds. The return ticket had on it...
