Tyne & Wear Rover Weekly Ticket

[Steddenm]

I know you can buy a weekly NetworkOne Tyne & Wear Rover ticket at Metro ticket machines and on the respective bus company (Stagecoach, Go North East, Arriva) apps, but can you buy it on the bus? Or if not, is there a ticket you CAN buy on the bus for a week that is multi-operator? I ask because I'm travelling to Tyne & Wear and can't use the apps (they don't accept Irish debit cards) and will be nowhere near a Metro station. Thanks.

Thanks. I know the day tickets (Day Rover/Explore North East) can be purchased on the bus, but I meant the weekly one.

I'm not aware of weekly Network One passes being available for purchase on buses. You can buy single-operator ones on the bus but with a few exceptions (eg. a weekly pass valid on Go North East 307/309 services is also valid on Arriva 306/308) there aren't any multi-operator ones available from a bus driver.
