Seem to be quite a few in London, near to key London Stations. Also in Bristol and Bath.

I agree. Also believe that is a one time, multi week promo code, so a new one does not need to be inputed, or claimed every week. Plus it it worth checking the Eats section as there can be some good deals on 'pick-up' options. For example: Some Wendy's branches recently had a BOGOF offer on...

Having had no response, or action via the online form in the past, I'll be calling in the future - including for the two previous transactions (detailed in a post dated 18th July) I've still not been credited for. 1787744605 ------------------- A bit of added benefit to the Uber One...

Can anyone provide more context on this service that was running yesterday by Chiltern Railways. It appeared these Chiltern services replaced all the usual Sunday GWR stopping services to Banbury. Is this a new service, a trial service, or one that was put together last minute due to XC...

Maybe if more effort was put into tackling fare evasion, now estimated at £350-£400 million a year, would help the railways finances somewhat.

There are plenty of things the Government funds or subsidises that I don't agree with, yet I am forced to contribute towards. So the tired argument of taxpayers who don't use the railways being forced to subsidise them is utter rubbish and now somewhat boring to listen to. Most Governments...

Has a one found the seat reservation option not to work? I booked a journey using XC at the weekend, selected the seat reservation option, yet my ticket did not have a seat reservation stated. When I was on the train, I did notice that seat reservations were working. So must be an issue...

Three rail journeys made last week, on Fri, Sat and Sun. Friday and Saturday's journeys have been credited, and were on Tuesday (Friday's) and Wednesday (Saturday's). Sunday's hasn't been. From my previous experience, if a journey hasn't been credited within a week, it is unlikely to be...

What stations were not stopped at to achieve a 59 minute service between Reading and Waterloo? Nowadays, it takes exactly an hour to go from Earley to Richmond.

Is there no scope for line speeds to be increased to 80, or even 85mph in places? There are several fairly long stretches of straight(ish) track. Wokingham to Bracknell Staines to Feltham/Twickenham. Better use of the Barnes to Waterloo four track section as fast/slow lines. Plus increase...

I've currently got a delay repay claim with XC that was submitted on 21st June - and is still waiting to be looked at. I thought there was supposed to be a maximum 10 day turnaround for delay repay claims. Is anyone else having the same issue?

Not seeing that offer in the Uber App, unless this shows at the Checkout stage.

No, it is in the Trainpal App. In the Railcards section. Although I suspect it will be varying discounts and amounts for different people.

It does not matter what T&C's state. It does seem a bit wrong that they are able to abolish credits after people have paid their Uber One money for the year. For some, the 10% credits on train journeys is a bit part of the justification for joining. If they want to do away with credits, it...
