Hi
Yesterday evening my partner and I travelled from Newton-Le-Willows (NLW) to Chester (CTR) with a two together railcard.
Our planned journey was to catch the 18:28 from NLW and return on the 22:13 from CTR.
National Rail Journey planner was showing the cost of this as £11.40.
We arrived at NLW slightly earlier and our first departure was the 18:17. We purchased tickets at NLW but were charged £13.50.
On checking this morning by repeating the journey today ... to leave on the 18:17 would cost £15.80 (anytime) and a whopping £32.80 (off-peak).
The actual fare charged only shows for the 19:18 departure from NLW.
Am I missing something here and what is the correct fare that we should have been charged?
Thanks ...
