Was looking for a ticket from Edinburgh to Perth, out one day (off-peak) and back next day (off-peak) next month for 1 Adult with no Railcard(s).
When I looked/booked (for TOD) last month on the Southern Railways website (the one I use for most of my tickets as local station on their network) it offered Off Peak Return at £21.10 but also 'HALF PRICE SVR' Route any operator at £10.55 and I bought that - no extra T&Cs were displayed and their 'i info' link just shows a blank screen. On the site's account for my purchases, that ticket's T&C's throws up a 404 error! It's still being offered today.
I assumed it was some 'Half price' offer just as Southern Railways themselves have in the past down 75p and upto 95% off offers.
However just having a thought now as to whether they have sold me a valid ticket, or it's really for some limited use or I'm meant to have some voucher/coupons/railcard etc to go with it.
Googling hasn't helped, and nothing on Scotrail's own site helps (they don't offer the "HALF PRICE SVR" there!). However Google did throw up this site and your expertise...
Help/clarification anyone?
Thanks in anticipation.
