Hi all,
I'm moving to Tonbridge fairly soon and while I'm really looking forward to it, what's giving me sleepless nights are the eye watering travel costs.
I currently commute from Grove Park in zone 4 to Canary Wharf which only costs me around £110 a month. Now I'm going to be commuting from Tonbridge to Canary Wharf which will set me back 4 times that!
I've read that there may be a perfectly legal solution to reducing the train costs slightly - split ticketing. But how would this work for my particular commute? I wouldn't want to be restricted by the route I take (the fast train calling only at Sevenoaks into London Bridge and then jubilee line to CW) but what season ticket or season tickets do I buy and would there be a significant saving?
I find it all a bit confusing so any help would be appreciated!
