Hi all (hopefully this is okay to post).

I accidentally booked a Seatfrog upgrade on the wrong train, the 20:03 Kings X to Leeds for tonight. If anyone wants it for free, feel free to PM me and I’ll send it your way.

Who has the highest % cashback at the moment? I have some tickets I need to book tonight

5% on Airtime Rewards with LNER is a good deal.

Also look out for LNER offers on Nectar Connect (using open banking).

Ridiculous to have such an offer when their services are such a complete shambles.

 

[NorthWestRover]

I've bought a first class return to Glasgow but who knows if I'll get there (or back!).

I was expecting the Northern newspaper offer to turn up as usual.

Same to Cleethorpes

Going to watch the footy so will eat into pre-match beers if it's late. Hopefully, enough options to get home at the end of the day.

If you have LNER perks make sure to check the app as they are offering a free one time entry into their first class lounges providing you have an LNER ticket. However, I’m not sure if it’s for all members.

I have it too, it's valid until 28th Feb 2023, can be used at kings cross or Edinburgh mon-fri or Leeds, York or Newcastle every day, and also you can bring a plus one provided they also have an LNER ticket (so if you and a friend both use the offer you could get two entries)

Thay say you need photo ID, in the terms and conditions. I don't have any, except my pensioner's bus pass, and they said that won't be accepted. Is it worth risking it, if I have my Senior Railcard as well? They accepted railcards as proof of age in the past.

I've never been asked to show photo ID when using TPE Club 55. I'm not bothering with the present offer given how appalling the current "service" is on TPE.

I am sure a Senior Railcard is fine the reality is that no conductor is going to ask you for proof of age. They can ask for tickets and railcards but nothing else.

 

[DeverseSam]

I am sure that Mojo doesn’t have time to update post 1 but is there any way to crowd source it? just seems confusing to have 2011 offers

Or a potential idea for one of the staff to lock this thread and start a replacement thread?

The first line makes it clear it's not being updated. The most recent offers are towards the end of this thread.

It would probably be better to edit the first post and delete the obsolete offers completely though.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but if they can't ask for proof of age what's stopping people buying child tickets?

And was trying to book for tomorrow but the TPE website for ticket sales has gone down. Think I'll be staying at home tomorrow.

 

[Chiltern006]

not sure if mentioned upthread but UNIDAYS have 40% off LNER tickets

 

[Pemberton]

Trainline currently have an offer on a minimum £30 spend on a Railcard for purchases up to 28th November which then qualifies for £15 off train tickets, costing a minimum of £30, on a journey before the end of this year.

plus a £30 minimum spend requirement on the tickets as well

 

[YorkC]

Not sure if it's ever been mentioned in the thread but Airtime Rewards (you basically link a payment card to your account and earn cashback against your mobile bill) give 8% on all LNER purchases on a more or less permanent basis AFAICS. It's been running for a year so far.

 

[Pemberton]

That may well vary from account to account as my Airtime Rewards account offers 5% on LNER purchases. Still a decent offer.

 

[James H]

I find the tracking doesn't work well for LNER and Airtime Rewards - I usually have to submit a missing transaction claim manually. All accepted in the end though.

And I've never had Nectar Connect track properly with LNER.
