Upon travelling to Birmingham Today, I needed to travel out to Bartley Green later on in my day. upon arriving at Birmingham New Street I asked the RPI for a Birmingham Plus Bus with my Y-P railcard.I planned to catch a train out to Walsall where my ticket was purchased to in the end.
1. RPI refused to give my railcard discount saying it's only valid for 'train' tickets not bus tickets, I didn't want too argue as I was in a rush.
2. On my way back from Walsall into Birmingham, I went to the Virgin T.Office and asked for a plus bus, explaining that I was breaking my journey, and needed to travel out to the 'suburbs'. I was told they couldn't sell them unless my ticket said Bham Stations. I asked for a Walsall plusbus as this would be valid as they are issued to Station+BUSWM valid on metro+ bus again told No.
In the end I got it from Snow Hill As the bus i caught went from colomore row, who happily sold me the ticket. From Birmingham Stns&Birmingham+BusWm
So this asks the Question. What are the rules? I can see nothing in the terms and conditions.
