Noticed there's 2 anytime singles both £7 one any permitted and one not underground (presumably that's for Thameslink).Anyone know why? Trainline for business pumped out the not underground one oh well
If you have the misfortune of a one hour outbound delay and a two hour return leg delay on a return ticket csn you claim both or only the 2 hour so as to not exceed ticket price. Very aware of avoiding allegations of fraudulent claims valid or otherwise
I've now done this 2 of the 3 obvious routes and probably the 2 most common ones actually. Cross country route. And now via Hereford (change Newport and Bristol TM). This Welsh Marshes route is a bit slower but a lot cheaper and I personally found it a better experience less crowded more...
Could someone advise what the policy is for claiming delay repay where the journey claimed for is not the entirety of the ticket due to break of journey? To make it more concrete, on 15 June the 19.46 from Bridgwater to Taunton was cancelled as was the one an hour later. This caused a 2 hour...
Anyone used buses in Malaga or Torremolinos? When I was there recently, the fella would only take cards from locals and was really grumpy about change. Not easy when you're so far away from home. Is it just a bad moment, or is there some sort of system to decipher?
This station which opened over 5 years ago is still not showing on the list of destinations on some ticket machines. Southeastern particularly bad on this, it's not available at Plumstead or Welling. When I emailed them they said there is no station at Cranbrook, the nearest is Staplehurst...
Cranbrook to Plumstead 24 Feb. Anytime early evening e.g. 17.39 or 18.39. Return journey flexible - can do Sunday can do Monday eve. I know there are some replacement buses part route on the 24th but that's not a disaster. But it's saying no fares, or only quoting £97 or £118! When it's usually...
This is a situation that may fill many people with dread. We know what's supposed to happen. We know what can happen in reality. We've probably all got experiences, good and bad. I've always found both GWR and SWR very helpful. I'd still be very confident if I got stuck at Exeter St...
So, I see that the Elizabeth line is not affected by tube strikes. Is this definitive proof it's not part of the tube and TFL are being disingenuous re tickets? I.e. needing tube validity to use the core
Good afternoon, apart from the obvious (EMR direct), could someone please let me know the main permitted routes from London to Sheffield. I'm assessing viability of joining my walking group for a new year's trip in the peak district, aware of the Harpenden area closure at that time. I'm thinking...
Morning, having a bit of an issue with GWR (surprisingly) over a delay repay claim - they are saying that Delay Repay is based on the 'next available service', so if a GWR train from Taunton arrives at Paddington 3 minutes before the last Elizabeth line train of the night to Woolwich, this is...
Must say I don't know what's happening here. I just want my usual super-off peak return from Plumstead to Cranbrook (London not underground), outbound on Sunday 1 September, it's £51.20 I tried forum site, best it was offering was £52 but that split at Lewisham which is quite restrictive. Turned...
Has anyone else experienced this? Today going for 20.29 train Otford to St Mary Cray. My destination was not on the ticket machine. Type s then t and then m is greyed out. Even tried Saint Mary Cray but no. So had to get ticket to Bickley which with railcard on a single was 40p more. I might...
Good morning, here's one for the experts. It strikes me as a bit complicated and I genuinely don't know whether I have a valid claim. I'd like to know before submitting, as I could see this one going to appeal.
Intended journey (it was yesterday 11 Aug)
Taunton 20.48
London Paddington 22.29...
We heard that trains were cancelled out of King's Lynn due to lack of a dispatcher. A speculative idea hence in this section. Is it really difficult to self dispatch? Instead of being negative and cancelling, would it not be better to say OK we prefer to have a dispatcher, but if not available...
I'm going from Exeter Central to Welling (London) on Thursday night on a super-off peak return, coming back Sunday. On the Sunday, I hope to stop off somewhere for national cup cricket, but with the weather looking showery, I'll need to decide if and where I'll stop on the morning. I know that I...
Trying to help my parents book 2 adults senior railcard flexible London Terminals to Worksop and back out 12 July back 15 July, both leave mid-morning. Even I'm finding it complex this one! On BR Fares, I only see anytime and super off-peak singles not via Doncaster. Seems simple. But on booking...
May I check please that I have interpreted it correctly that this ticket has no outbound time restriction? Also that the super-off peak version can be used from 8.30am leaving London Terminals (restriction code PU).
Can anyone think of a better way than 2 singles for this journey. Out from Plumstead to Dorking. Back from Caterham to Plumstead. A split ticket at Norwood junction would be possible but would resrtict route options and trains to those that call.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
