At my university, students live in halls under a license to occupy, which creates no relationship of landlord and tenant between the student and the university. This license sets out both 'student's obligations', as one would expect, but also the 'university's obligations', wherein the...

My partner has asked me if something is fine and I'm not actually certain. They collected TOD for eight Advance journeys, each with a number of splits and seat reservations (i.e. there were a lot of bits of card) from Thirsk this afternoon and realised a bit later that a ticket was missing for...

The Anytime Day Return between Exeter St Davids and Yeoford is £7.30, whereas the Anytime Day Single is £3.60, making two singles cheaper than a return. A friend of mine encountered this today and staff at Exeter assured him it was an oversight and stated they would escalate a complaint. Is...

When (attempting) to use the TVM at Exeter St Thomas earlier today, it failed in a manner I have never seen before. Normally, when the TVM is 'broken', you are greeted with an error message as soon as you reach the screen. In this case, the screen looked normal when I started, the interface...

If a passenger is using a Paignton PlusBus ticket to travel from Brixham to Newton Abbot/Paignton railway station, and the bus is delayed such that the passenger misses the last train, is the passenger then stranded or can they demand alternative transport from the railway because they were...

I'm sure this question will have a simple answer but I'm tearing my hair out trying to understand the London fares system. Me and two other people, all three of us with a paper Zones 1-3 Seven Day Travelcard, are looking to travel from central London to East Croydon (we're not interested in...

I'm planning a journey from Exeter to London setting out on either the evening of 17 February 2021 or the morning of the 18th, and returning on the evening of 20 February 2021. The intention is to find the cheapest tickets possible for a comfortable journey and AFAIK the best plan is to look for...

A friend asked me to try and map the Permitted Routes from "Exeter St Davids to London" (Exeter Group to London Group) and this was the end product. Want to go validly from Exeter St Davids to Cannon Street? Better take a detour via Warminster!

What is the best route that we can come up with for circumnavigating London? By that, I mean travelling in a complete loop around the capital without actually entering London. How exactly 'best' is defined I will leave to be determined, but some obvious points would be faster routes, cheaper...

I've lost a single (one of two) wireless earphones and I'm quite anxious to try and get it back - I imagine to cleaning staff it would just be binned or it will end up stepped on! I was on an A bus that arrived into Broadway at 19.25, heading towards Alphington. I tried to take a photo; it's too...

It was due to release in autumn 2019, but after spending more time than I'd like to admit scouring the web, I can't work out what happened to it. Everything goes quiet in late 2019 and it just seems to have been kicked into the long grass. The only recent references to it are in "Marketing...

This is a long shot, but as I'm expensing these tickets to a charity that I'd like to save money (traveling to a trustee meeting), I thought I'd consult the experts before booking. Our travel policy does not allow us to expense coach travel or domestic flights, so the journey needs to be taken...

So, in Huffam v. The North Staffordshire Railway Company (1894.2 Q.B., 821), the railway by-law that established a strict liability offence of travelling without a ticket was found to be "bad". Quoting from a legal journal, "the passenger was found using the return half of a ticket after the...

Hi! I'm looking for advice on finding the cheapest possible tickets for a trip from Exeter St Davids to Bracknell and back again on the same day, the 16th of November. I don't need any particular times, but I'm aiming to do some shopping, so it would be good if I can be there for a while (i.e...

I just want to make sure I've got this right - if I get it wrong I might be hit with quite a penalty fare! I'm travelling from Darsham to Exeter St Davids. Exeter St Davids is a routing point by itself, and Darsham has two routing points: Ipswich and Norwich. The permitted route from either...

This question relates to N.R. tickets marked with an '+', such as Exeter St Davids to Darsham (which allows you to travel on the Tube from Paddington to Liverpool Street), or Leighton Buzzard to St Albans (which allows you to do Euston to St Pancras). While looking into the rules around these...

In February I will be travelling on the Underground from Paddington to Bow Road (I live in Devon). Using a one-journey ticket, what's the most interesting route I can justify taking?
