Thanks, I am glad I am not going mad. For each passenger I uploaded two PDFs, one for each passenger with both tickets present (i.e NCL-MAN on page 1, MAN-CDF on page 2) and maybe the auto system has just used the first page? The TfW delay repay site still shows the claim in progress, even...

Hello everyone I write for a maths (and sense) check before I disagree with TfW's calculation of delay repay compensation. Last Friday I had tickets for a journey from Newcastle to Cardiff as follows: 0824-0913: Newcastle to York 0958-1136: York to Manchester Piccadilly 1230-1545: Manchester...

I'm currently on the 1011 Didcot Parkway to Paddington stopper... which is running non-stop between Reading (where we are currently idle) and Paddington due to the warm weather. I'm not sure how missing out three stops can help other than perhaps allowing for a bit of extra padding in the...

Hmm, when you put it like that I suppose maybe I am not actually entitled to that fee refunded. As you say, Seatfrog upheld their side of the agreement and provided me with an upgrade. It's not their fault the train was declassified.

Evening all, On Sunday I travelled on the 1147 Carlisle to Euston, having connected there on a service from Edinburgh. En route to Carlisle I sensed that the 1147 would be full as the services either side of it had been cancelled, and bought a SeatFrog upgrade to Standard Premium. The train...

This Sunday I need to travel from Newtongrange to Didcot Parkway. With the lines to KGX shut I planned to go via Carlisle, starting at 0920, then the 1013 Edinburgh - Carlisle service and from Carlisle to Euston, then to Paddington and Didcot Parkway. I was going to buy a super off peak single...

Michael Crichton coined this as Gell-Mann Amnesia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gell-Mann_amnesia_effect Thoughts with those affected, who were just going about their evening as we all do.

Yes, all happily resolved and as I noted above I was initially surprised that I'd be able to get any money back at all. One thing to clarify though. Had I originally searched for, and bought, the Newtongrange-Hook Advance Singles as one "return" search, rather than doing one then the other, the...

What I originally booked: Newtongrange - Hook, LNER Advance Single Hook - Newtongrange, LNER Advance Single Two tickets, found from two separate searches, placed into the same basket and bought as one transaction, so one transaction ID covers both. What I replaced it with: Newtongrange -...

Not sure if Fare advice or dispute, but it does involve the forum retailler. Last week I bought a journey, made up of Advance single tickets, as two separate legs, in the same transaction, for a journey departing on Thursday. So in my account I have two different entries (one outbound, one...

Stellar, thank you for that! The first bus of the day gets to Carlise at 1155, so a 1225 departure is either perfect timing or madly tight, depending on one's propensity for risk But this has given me things to think about, thank you!

Certainly possible, the bus to Carlisle (and Gala) leaves from the end of my street.

Hi all, I am looking for return tickets from Newtongrange (or, I suppose, Edinburgh, but the last train to Newtongrange leaves Edinburgh at about 2340) to Southampton Airport Parkway 26-27 June. Leaving more or less anytime and getting back in time for the last train home. The forum site...

I'm currently on a Lumo service. On Sunday, I took LNER in the opposite direction. Strikes me that the Lumo seats *seem* quite narrow as compared with LNER. For context, I wear an XL polo shirt. I moved across to an empty seat as my right arm kept brushing up against the person seated next to...
