With Omio giving 15% cashback on train tickets via Topcashback.co.uk, it'd be rude not to. Even on a Brighton to London Thameslink return, it's giving £2.80 cashback.
Trouble is though, I can't find how to select an option to get it to give a code to pick up the ticket at a machine rather than an eticket*, even though I've bought tickets from that website before where I've been able to do this. I don't want the faff of hunting for a PDF on my phone, or installing yet another app, or having to queue at ticket gatelines (I'm sure neither Brighton nor London Bridge etc. have the means of doing optical scans).
I've gone and bought these Etickets now and I'm travelling today so I'll see what it's like. But I really don't feel happy about travelling without an orange and cream thin bit of card with the details on it that isn't going to run out of batteries. (The Luddite in me also prints off flight boarding cards rather than using a phone).
Many thanks for any tips!
