I'll need to travel Lowestoft to London, and then London to Diss/Norwich, with a flexible return needed. Is there any interpretation of routing rules or split tickets that makes this cheaper than buying two (expensive) off-peak singles that don't benefit from the return discount? Thanks in...

Unfortunately for this journey I have to use the trainline, it's an external constraint. 1730122327 I respectfully disagree.

Breach in terms of ambiguity I mean.

I'd take the view under Consumer Rights Act this is breach of contract and forward the cost to thetrainline, but I digress... I have a e-ticket, would that still be possible?

Alas I have to for this journey! The UI, for what it's worth...

The tickets I bought were £5.90 less than the Anytime Short Return I would have bought if the app was working properly, but changing the ticket will cost £25.10 (CDS) - £7.80 (ADV) + £10 fee = £27.30 The train manager on the outbound train said it would be fine (I wrote down his name from his...

I didn't know that actually, but only realised when I was on the train and the guard was scanning my ticket unfortunately.

I needed to travel from Newcastle to Whitehaven, I was already at Newcastle station and knew I would be travelling on the next train, but needed to travel back at some point on Wednesday afternoon. I searched on thetrainline app, selected my outbound train and my probable inbound train. On the...

Merry Christmas RF I bought a return Super Off Peak return ticket online with seat reservations on 22 Dec for travel out 24 Dec and returning today on 27 Dec on a 9am train. As this was just before the Christmas break I thought the timetable as finalised. When I checked today that train has...

I have a Super Off-Peak Single (Any Permitted) which says on the e-Ticket in the GWR app "A break of journey at intermediate stations is not permitted". The restriction code 2W doesn't say anything about break of journey, nor does the ticket on brfares - is this enforceable?

True but sometime people get a little confused with contract law and exclusions/get-outs which the CRA would override. Interesting to know!

Is there an angle under the Consumer Rights Act to have alternative transport if/when the trains are cancelled?

Thanks all!

Exceptionally niche request, but I'm planning on travelling on this train next week: Thursday, 11 August 18.13 Madrid-Puerta De Atocha 20.46 Málaga María Zambrano AVE 02182 I have a flight at 01:15 from Malaga, which means I'd need to be at Málaga María Zambrano by 23:30 latest to make it to...
