Slade Green to Eastleigh - starting at Waterloo

[blakey1152]

Good afternoon,
I need to go down to Eastleigh on Thursday morning from Slade Green returning the same day - so looking at an off peak day return.
I have a Network Railcard which isn't valid until 1000 however I really need to travel as early as I can in the off peak.

If I buy an off peak day return with the Network Railcard from Slade Green to Eastleigh for £31.40 am I able to use an alternative method to get to Waterloo and catch the 1009 service to Eastleigh or will it not be valid as I didn't start after 1000 from Slade Green?

Thank you

That's fine - the ticket is valid for break of journey (which includes starting 'late') and the Railcard restriction is simply that you can't travel before 10am.

You might want to explain that you've made your own way here if anyone asks but the use case you describe is valid either way.

Wonderful.
