    Over 60 Oyster and Boundary Zone tickets

    Thanks - I note with other examples where I enter 2 stations within the 60+ oyster area (e.g. Charing Cross and Erith) I get the error message "Sorry, an error has occurred. Boundary zone searches need to be between a zonal and non-zonal station". which seems sensible. My suggestion is that...

    Over 60 Oyster and Boundary Zone tickets

    Thanks for this suggestion which is useful (I do use the forums ticketing site extensively for buying tickets, which is mostly excellent). However, typically I travel on day trips in the south east, and when I travel I simply want to know the choice of tickets and what the specific restrictions...

    Over 60 Oyster and Boundary Zone tickets

    So are we saying that there is an error on the freedom pass website in that Avanti is not listed as an excluded operator? In connection with this, I have been trying to find a formal T&C's for the 60+ oystercard/freedom pass which would hopefully unambiguously define the restrictions. Does one...

    Over 60 Oyster and Boundary Zone tickets

    Are you referring to 60+ oyster or boundary tickets? (or both)? The Freedom pass website certainly seems to suggest Avanti is valid for a Boundary Zone 6/Freedom pass combination since it is not listed as an excluded operator. Also I note that brfares show Boundary Zone 6 tickets to Milton...

    Over 60 Oyster and Boundary Zone tickets

    My understanding from the freedom pass website (I believe the restrictions are the same for 60+ oystercard) is that you would not be able to use this combination on EMR or LNER. The website states: The Freedom Pass is not valid for travel on train services operated by: East Midlands Trains...

    Network Card restrictions

    I've had a network railcard for a few years, and thought I was fairly familiar with the restrictions on this card - which as well as not valid before 10am on Monday to Friday, include: cannot be used for Advance tickets £13 minimum fare Monday to Friday These restrictions are in the T&C's for...

    60+ Oyster and travel outside London

    Is this correct? On the forum's ticketing site (my normal site of choice for buying tickets) I've tried to enter "Boundary Zone 6" (which is what you can enter on brfares.com) but it doesn't seem to be an option. Maybe it's called something else, but I can't work out what to enter. What it does...

    Introducing RailUK Tickets - support the forum when booking your rail tickets!

    Firstly, loving the useability and flexibility of the railforums/trainsplit ticketing platform! I would like to query the "Break of Journey" information being given on this platform, which I've noticed seems to be incomplete on a number of journeys I've tried to book recently. For example, I'm...

    Unable to collect tickets when using Chase bank card

    I also have a Chase debit card. I've just double checked my ticket purchase history and can confirm I successfully used my Chase card to pick up tickets ordered online (on the Southern website) at St Pancras on the 16th April for a trip to Rochester (for which eTickets were not available). So...
