The advance fares are not showing up with the red highlight, what's going on?

And yes it's a trip on an East Coast train :D

EDIT- seems it's coming up for Advance fares below £10 (with a railcard) but not for anything higher. Government b******s.

I noticed that on the website yesterday, all advances bar one service didn't have a discount. Strangley enough, the service with the discount was the cheapest. Perhaps EC are only offering the discount on the lowest priced advance fares?

It always said that before (minus the time restrictions) but 'lowest Advance fares' simply meant Advance fares, because they are the lowest fares available.

Even on trains outside the time restrictions, the discount is no longer available on the lowest Advance fares available.

So yes, the Government have made a distinctly anti-passenger move.
