Thanks for the response so its likely to happen if I purchase the ticket from the ticket office or is it just confined to tickets purchased from self service machines.

Hi all, I'm hopeful that someone on the boards might be able to answer this query as both station staff and Chilterns managers haven't been able to so far. I purchase a super offpeak return from sutton Coldfield to kelvedon via high wycombe, all is well on the outbound journey, however on...

Hi All, Thanks for the advice and guidance, I booked via LM's site for the OPR from BMO to MYB and then 2 singles for the Finsbury Park -> Kel portion of the journey, unfortunately i booked it at 0845 sand when I got to BHM NS it didn't recognize my booking as it hadn't cleared on the system...

Thanks John, out of interest what is the definition of a 'London group' station, i didn't realize that in this instance MYB wasn't a London Terminal. Thanks also for the rail, fare advice, I'll look at those options. Cheers

Hi All, I am traveling tomorrow from any Birmingham Station to Kelvedon, returning on Sunday, I'm flexible on both outbound and inbound times. The quoted SVR from BHM to KEL is £55.80 which is New Street to Euston, U1, then LST to KEL. I know that Chiltern offer a Super off-peak for...

thanks will, looks like I can do it for £46 as per the previous poster, many thanks for the advice anyway. cheers Jon

Hello, is that for the entire journey (b'ham to folkestone) or does it just cover the birmingham to london part (via HWY) thanks Jon --- old post above --- --- new post below --- would help if i checked out the site first, apologies, thanks for the £46 heads-up on the fare. cheers . jon

Hello, Having trouble finding a decent fare/time for a journey from any of the Birmingham stations departing this Friday (07/11) and arriving in Folkestone no later than 20:00 (so says the other half :D), and then returning on the Monday (10/11), departing Folkestone after 14:00. The...

Hmmm, do you know I think it said 'Valid on any train timed to depart after 0803'. I'll have a look on Monday, no doubt the machines will have been updated to reflect the new policy. But that statement was always the case in the 0903 to SLO that I have caught for the past 2 years and always...

Gents, Thanks for the comments, one interesting point, last Monday I arrived at BHM, proceeded to the ticket machine, however before buying the open return ticket for £85 to Basingstoke I thought I'd check the Saver Return restrictions, this showed up as the usual £49.90 and valid on any train...

John, Many thanks for the response, i'll take a look at what you've suggested. thanks again Jon

Hello All, Great site by the way, I wonder if someone could help me out. For the past 18 months I've been traveling each Monday from B'Ham New Street to either Slough or Basingstoke depending on which project I was assigned to that week, I'd then travel back on either a Thursday or Friday...
