    GWR - help please - disputed claim for "compensation for delay"

    Dear All Thank you for your help. Today, having pursued my claim since the end of August, I received a letter of apology, and two £25 vouchers. Although broadly satisfied with the amount of money, I cannot help but wonder if the claim process is deliberatively lengthy and obstructive (ie ask...

    GWR - help please - disputed claim for "compensation for delay"

    I wonder if anyone can help, please? In September, 2017, I travelled from Sherborne, Dorset, to Portsmouth. I bought my ticket, a standard off-peak day return (senior rail card), at Sherborne station (South Western Railway). I had to change at Salisbury, my intention being to catch the...
