Evening all,

I'm looking to hopefully buy a Veterans Railcard. I think I am eligible but am not entirely sure.

Looking the criteria on the Railcard website, it states 'You’ll be eligible for a Veterans Railcard providing you have served for at least one day or more in His Majesty’s Armed Forces (Regular or Reserve)'.

Many moons ago I was in the Territorial Army for a time, so I think I should be able to get one based on that criteria. I have requested a copy of my proof of service certificate as evidence.

I was just wondering if anyone has had experience of getting one of these railcards and how stringent the eligibility is.

Many thanks

I have one, having swaped from a Senior in the summer. I had 30 years service so eligability wasnt really an issue. Bought it online was approved within about 5 hours using my discharge letter as evidence.
