Is this something which should be investigated?
Basically it appears (from that post above) that some TOCs are ignoring the rules and changing fares outwith the set dates.Although the process of fares only changing 3 times per year (dating back to when paper fares manuals needed to be printed and distributed) is enshrined in many agreements and contracts, more and more TOCs are ignoring this and changing fares randomly all the time, and getting away with it because almost all retail systems are updated nightly these days.
