    GTR Gatwick Staff Problems....

    A ticket inspector once noticed that the photocard number on my paper season ticket had completely worn away (after months of daily use, almost all printed text had worn away to nothing); without warning or explanation he took my season ticket and photocard to another part of the train. When he...

    Paid on-peak fare for off-peak train

    Since it would have been entirely possible for me to purchase an off-peak return after purchasing the anytime return and before boarding the off-peak train (had it immediately occurred to me to do so) it seems as though the standard delay repay is the only remaining option.

I see your point (and the...

    Paid on-peak fare for off-peak train

    This morning I purchased an Anytime Day Return, intending to catch the last on-peak train of the morning with one change. It was delayed meaning I would miss the change, so I had to take the next direct train which happened to be off-peak. The difference in price between anytime and off-peak...
