No doubt this has been posted before, but how do I book more than one seat using XC's 10 minute reservation system? I have done this in the past but can't remember how I did it. Thanks

You can always just send the same message a couple of times, you'll get seats next to each other. I've needed to do that a few times.

Heads up though, when using the Three network at least, CrossCountry charge 10p per message, above any inclusive allowance. CrossCountry claim they don't, but Three customer services proved to me otherwise!

As far as I can tell you can book the whole train up, provided you are prepared to keep sending single texts.

Thanks for the replies, there is definitely a way to book multiple seats via one text message, I have done it before, but it was a while ago.
To book 2 seats between Manchester and Birmingham could it be something like,
TMR MAN BHM 1100 2
Thanks.
