    Routeing Through London to c2c

    It's also worth mentioning that while Romford has step-free access, the TfL maps indicate that this isn't the case at Upminster when arriving from Romford. For many people this would make it, at best, a sub-optimal change point.

    Implied contract terms - ticket delivery methods

    As the OP printed them at home the cost will be negligible.

    Implied contract terms - ticket delivery methods

    As you didn't ask for a refund, you can't really complain about not being offered one. As for compensation, if you feel they should be offering you a £5 voucher, then tell them. Sometimes when dealing with businesses you have to tell them what it is you want, rather than assuming they will...

    Did you actually ask for a refund?

    Group Save discount on Advance tickets

    It shouldn't be because both of them have instructed (in the past) that it should only be sold at staffed sales points.

    Group Save discount on Advance tickets

    Groupsave does not apply to Advance tickets, only to walk-up tickets and generally at 'off peak' times. The discount that LNER offer is their own Small groups discount, not Groupsave. Some other operators also offer group discounts that may vary from the 'standard' Groupsave discount.

    EMR has set the reservation compulsory flag for the train I want, and no Standard Class tickets can be sold

    Although none of them playing London area teams, so the impact shouldn’t be too bad.

    Football

    Engineering work between Crewe and Stafford but otherwise looks to be clear. Just strikes and general Avanti-ness to worry about!

    Really don’t understand the Rail Staff Travel website

    A non-existent rule these days, the benefit of which may very according to which line of route is being used to travel (wholly) within the Network Railcard area to/from London.

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    Actually, the validation isn't visible to the mark 1 human eye, which is why some fraudsters are using digitally altered eTickets and getting caught when the barcodes are scanned and found to be very different to the text details.

    TPE irregularity report - no railcard

    Thet are going to look at your purchase history as far back as they can, without worrying about where you were living or where you were travelling. So if you were doing this where you previously lived you are going to be on the hook for that as well.

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    Should the rules also be changed for those unable to show a paper ticket?

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    The minority are already catered for, and the choice has not been taken away. In due course it may or may not become more restricted but the existing eTicket system os satisfactory for the vast majority of people using it. 1710694712 No, you are being told that no such project exists.

    Harwich International – Leamington Spa with a break in London

    Part of the problem you have is that the railcard cannot be used for a journey to London at the early time you are arriving. There is, however, a different rule for a longer journey that goes outside the "Network Railcard" area (to Leamington) and this will distort the fares available. Also...

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    There doesn't need to be a central database of eTickets.

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    That's what the thread was about, before it got derailed by the usual arguments about how unfair it is to have eTickets at all. Do you think abolishing something as popular as eTickets is the solution, because that's what you seem to be arguing for?

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    How many times does it have to be said - nobody is saying that anyone has to have a printer!

    E-Tickets on dead phones - a possible solution?

    You don't have to, it's optional. No idea, it's not something I've ever encountered. This is really no different to putting a paper ticket in a wallet and the wallet being lost or stolen. Except that you can still access your eTicket through online sources, but you would have to buy a new...
