@James H : Appreciate the heads up.

Does anyone know how @styles was able to get the additional cashback for the victoria to victoria journey?
When you book National Express there is a link to the NXRewards subscription service, with first month free which gives cashback. Forgot to cancel and you are on the hook for a monthly fee of £18.
Would recommend sticking to Quidco, TopCashBack etc.

You can easily earn back the monthly fee by making one purchase each month so it need not cost you anything to maintain your account. I’ve done quite well out of it so far.

But definitely not a fan of some of Complete Savings / NX Rewards marketing tactics.

Hi all,

I am seeking the absolute cheapest National Express Journey possible.

(It’s for NX rewards. You have to make one purchase a month with one of their recommended retailers, to keep the account free).

Previous cheapest was

1st option - London Victoria to London Victoria Coach Station (roughly £1.20)

But it seems this has been removed as a route. I just tried it.

2nd option - LHR Terminal 2/3 to LHR T4 (roughly £1.85)

They accept ANY purchase, to qualify.

So - I’m asking the community if they’ve found a journey thats cheaper?

TIA

Merry Xmas to all.

London Victoria Coach Station to London Victoria Railway Station is working for me. You have to make sure you do it in that direction going Northbound as going Southbound shows no journeys. I have just input those details for journeys today and it shows a £1.20 single ticket for dozens and dozens of journeys. If you sign up for a free NX online account then you can avoid the booking fee which means that £1.20 single is all that you pay.

Isn’t the overnight run to N40 Heathrow from Ealing Broadway £2 singles, that would be one of the logical tickets someone could purchase

I think this has already been covered, but when I last checked, you could travel on NX401 between Devizes and Swindon once per day for £3, when booked in advance
