No worries, I have indeed seen this recently but had never done so in the years it's been operating previously and as others mentioned have been credited multiple journeys in the past. It's the "it's always been like that" (it hasn't) that rankles and the nonsensical business that you could...

Cheers John Yes, totally that... Definitely had multiple journeys credited in one day last year despite it "always being like that". I kind of get it (but don't like it obviously) if they want to stop people getting multiple credits for split ticket journeys but to penalise for doing a day...

...how dare you...!

Thanks for the replies folks.

Hi, Going to buy the Hatton to Lapworth Gold Card today. Previously I was buying an IOW one with SWR to use my remaining SWT Weekend tickets but seeing as they've stopped taking them... (yes, I know it's been years but unfortunately COVID years plus multiple ill health in the household since...)...

Thank you, I knew that I had similar before despite what they told me.

Can anybody help confirm or deny the following please? Made two AWC journeys X2 people on the same day last week and only two got counted towards my Club Avanti total. When I clicked on the "Why?" icon there was load of stuff about having to be 75 miles long (they were), booked on their...

Nothing would surprise me. Avoided interaction there many years back after going to the advance ticket office to enquire about some fares but not buy right now to be told by the charmer "working" there with no queue "I'm not going to do that if you're not going to buy anything" and went back to...

Thank you for your advice @Watershed Much appreciated. I assume that a Super Off-Peak Day Return for those two one way journeys would be cheaper than singles? Also, it doesn't seem worth renewing the Club 50 membership...

Thank you :) I should have said that the journeys to & from London are sorted already because I got discounted tickets with Blue Light Discount which weren't available to Stirling and I wanted to break my journeys each way for a few hours. How come the Super Off-Peak Day Returns aren't available...

Hi, Will hopefully be making the following journeys next week in addition to London - Edinburgh and Glasgow - London... (Approx times) Thu 7th Aug 16:30 Edinburgh to Stirling Thu 7th Aug 19:00 Stirling to Glasgow Thu 7th Aug 23:00 Glasgow to Stirling Fri 8th Aug 12:00 Stirling to Edinburgh Fri...

Yes, but a 57% increase and then advertising like it's all inclusive (I thought it was a great deal at first glance...)

Just seen (via a misleading IMHO advert trying to make it look attractive, doesn't mention it's just the upgrade price) that Seatfrog upgrades Euston to Glasgow are now £55 (£58 Inc the - ahem - "platform fee"). Bye bye :(

@Tezza1978 You feel my pain! Got the 19:45 from Witton against all expectations by legging it at the final whistle as there wasn't exactly much to stay around for. Farcical journey back from New Street. Got the 20:06 with plenty of time to spare (about 8 minutes) and arrived on platform near the...

What's the capacity of a West Midlands Trains service from Birmingham New Street to Euston on a Sunday night? Asking for upto 6,000-ish Spurs fans returning from Villa Park tomorrow with only two (three at a push, 20:06 is rather optimistic given a 17:35 KO) departures and no Avanti services. I...
