Good evening everyone, I am going to start working at NR next week and want to ask how to get the rail and underground season tickets subsidies. I have tried to ask my line manager but no reply. Therefore, may I ask are there any processes or applications I have to do before getting the season tickets subsidies? Many thanks!

You apply via abellio. www.abelliocorporatetravel.com
Your line manager needs to sign it off but once they do it’s sent pretty quick. In the meantime if you buy a weekly or equivalent they will refund you the money once you receive your season ticket and you send them in your old ticket

Part of your onboarding process should have covered subsidised season tickets. For the record you get a 75% reduction, which is very employees entitlement..
Your line manager should supply you with this so I would ring him or the recruitment advisor that dealt with your application..

us line managers don’t sign it off we just get a notification that the cost will show coming from our cost centre.
Some of the people I hired externally had issues getting their’s right away but others had no problems.
if you know your employee number may be worth calling abellio yourself.

Not sure what you mean by that but yes you get 75% reduction in the normal cost of a season ticket.

I mean you wouldnt get 75% off a £10000 season ticket. The limit is capped as said above. It used to be around the £2500 mark.Not sure what you mean by that but yes you get 75% reduction in the normal cost of a season ticket.

Not to my knowledge.. 75% off any season ticket.. I’ve sorted a few of these out for staff and I’ve never come across an exception.

Strictly speaking, not every employee is entitled to it. All new employees are, however.

It is 75% off Standard Class season tickets, for annual or 6 month tickets only. The subsidy is 75% of the cost, up to a maximum subsidy of £2,750 for an annual ticket (ie ticket price of £3666.66).
Essentially it is a loan - say your ticket costs £3000, the company pays for it, then you pay back the loan over the next 10 pay periods at 25% of £300, ie £75. (it’s always 10 pay periods for an annual ticket, 5 for a six monthly ticket).
Note that the subsidy is treated as income so you pay tax and insurance on it through PAYE.
It is definitely capped for some I have had pass through my inbox.Not to my knowledge.. 75% off any season ticket.. I’ve sorted a few of these out for staff and I’ve never come across an exception.
