Again I've been asked to buy an Anytime ticket on arrival at Manchester because it's "Peak Time". (Arriving 1745 last night from Goostrey).
Discussion ensues and the fare is checked by a colleague, before I'm sold an Off-Peak ticket. (Goostrey is outwith the NR Peak Time boundary).
As I was (initially) denied a Duo ticket by a guard a couple of weeks ago, I'm wondering how many people are getting overcharged by undertrained staff?
There's no real incentive for NR to improve the training, as they would need to pay for the training and cut their revenue.
