I used my Morrisons voucher with no issues. I selected Scotrail, but bought a ticket Shrewsbury to Manchester and it worked perfectly.

I would send them a private message on twitter, thats always worked for me in the past.

How about a four points of the compass tour? Penzance, Airsaig, Wick/Thurso and Lowestof?

Thank you. Will look now. 1655556704 All sorted. Many thanks for the help!

I'm travelling from Crewe to Glasgow tomorrow morning, I've just been to my local unstaffed station to pick up the tickets. The ticket machine says my tickets have already been collected or partially collected. Now, I might have had a senior moment and collected them already, but I don't think I...

I’m going away 19th to 24th June, travelling from Shropshire to Glasgow. My plans were, go to Oban on the 5.20 train on the Monday and then make use of a 3 day central Scotland rover, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Only I could book a rail based holiday, on the week of strikes! As it stands I...

I was lucky enough to go from Kings Cross to Inverness last year in first as part of LNERs seat sale. It was a bucket list trip for me. I took my single seat and settled down, looking forward to the journey ahead. Then, a businessman type bloke sat behind me and starting phoning people. I ended...

As a slightly different option, how about getting a return or a couple of advances from Salisbury to Newport and then taking advantage of a Explore South Wales rover ticket. 4 days in 8 travel for £44.45 with a railcard. This would give you virtually unlimited travel in a triangle from...

Yes, I should be grateful, it's not gone up more I suppose. I only found the £6.50 fare in the summer and felt it very reasonable. £9 'seems' too expensive. As I only do leisure trips it just means I do less, thus decreasing revenue for the railway, not increasing it. Thanks for the relpy

Evening. I do the occasional leisure trips involving my local station (WEM, Shropshire) and Manchester Piccadilly. In the summer the cheapest advance was £6.50 one way. In early October I noticed it had gone up to £8. Just browsing now and seen the same trip is now £9 per trip on a random day...

Oooh interesting. I might go and have another go then. Thank you

I spoke to their twitter account last night, and they said just pick up on the day from Manchester Piccadilly. Im not desperately impressed to be honest, I'm travelling with my elderly parents and will have just less than 20 mins to pick them up. I'd much rather be organised and have the tickets...

Yes thank you, I'll give them a call and see what they say. Thanks for getting back to me

Thank you all, I'll let you know how I get on, that's if I actually manage to collect my tickets. Thank you

Morning all. I read all about the trouble collecting the Northern £1 offer tickets. I left it until yesterday to pick mine up in Shropshire. I also couldn't get any to print, not even a receipt. I did genuinely think this would have been resolved by now. What is my best course of action? I...
