I arrived at Sunderland at 10:00, to find the 10:17 to Kings Cross, for which I have an advance, cancelled.
I spoke to ticket office who said there’s no LNER acceptance and to get the 12:30.
I quoted my PRO rights, which they acknowledged but said I’d have to take it up with GC if I bought a new ticket and claimed back the cost. GC Twitter/x advice for 10:17 says passengers boarding at York or Peterborough only may use their ticket on the 12:02 LNER.
Probably less hassle to wait for the 12:30 and claim 75% delay repay for a 2 hour delay (I’ve checked their website), as opposed to buying a new ticket and then threatening to sue when they invariably refuse to refund it), but if they can sort out acceptance for passengers boarding at York, why not for the whole journey (though I appreciate it’s probably down to what LNER agreed to).
