To Watershed's point: "If so, in principle you can just use a through return ticket for the whole journey, since Manchester-Coventry-London is a valid route from Manchester to London. "Any permitted" walk-up tickets for this journey allow you to break your journey."
I...
Sorry for the potentially silly question, but I have a meeting in Coventry on a Tuesday (24th March) and then a meeting in London on Weds AM (25th March).
How would I go about booking a ticket from Manchester Picc -> Coventry -> London Euston, but then back direct London Euston -> Manchester...
Good shout. We're off to the Oasis gig at Wembley, and depending on how things are afterwards may get a tube north then a taxi back - so this might not be a viable option. We will probably take a call on the day - thank you!
Aye I'm staying in one of those that's Borehamwood way - I obviously...
This Saturday I'm getting the train down from Manchester Picc to Euston, will need to drop my bags off at my hotel in Elstree & Borehamwood, then head back to Euston before heading back to Elstree & Borehamwood later in the evening. Is there a ticket that will cover me for said journey, or will...
Nope. Two different collection references! Very strange.
Avanti staff were helpful & the guard has just been down & printed off our tickets for us - very friendly!
Morning!
Not looking for advice here really (unless I end up in the Disputes forum as a result of this journey…!), but thought it might be of interest.
I went to collect my train ticket (bought through Avanti) this morning at Manchester Piccadilly (for the Euston train) - off peak return...
There was a man checking tickets at Macclesfield, and therefore not sticking to Social Distancing regulations.
The other day he caught somebody who had got on at Poynton without a ticket, a much need £4.50* in the coffers.
Surely this shouldn't be happening at the moment?!
*plus admin...
I'm looking to travel from Manchester to Wimbledon, then Wimbledon to Southampton on one day, and then from Southampton to Manchester the following day (23/24 March).
Is there a 'multi city' ticket I can buy for this, or will I have to get 3 separate singles?
Yes - it was a machine. It wasn't the Virgin Trains one - that couldn't offer me a fare, it was the London Midland (?) one.
Work pay, so it's not the end of the world, but that's not the point!
I bought a ticket yesterday from Euston to Weybridge, and was given two options. One was 'Any Permitted', the other was 'via Surbiton'.
I bought the (cheaper) via Surbiton ticket, as almost all trains go via Surbiton...
I got a confirmation on the screen to show that the ticket was for 'London...
Sounds like a prime example of poor customer service on the railway.
This is why I feel it's sad that a company like Virgin, who generally 'GET' customer service, are not being able to reapply for their franchise. I'd be surprised if you had a similar experience with them.
Apologies - as noted below, Pepipoo maybe not the right place after all, was just trying to help :)
I'm afraid I can't help from a rail perspective, but have you posted this on the Pepipoo forum? They are specialised in parking fines & tickets, and may be best placed to help.
