I've been been using my local TOC website (southern) to buy tickets to collect from the machines. However the new southern website is much less usable that the old site. I've also tried Hull Trains website since it has old style system, but it seems to be missing functionality the southern website previously had.

So I'm looking for a ticket buying website that

1) Allows me to store details of several regular journeys, to speed up buying tickets, so I only need to select the date of travel. Southern website previously had "favorite" journeys.

2) Allows me to buy several journeys in one transaction, so I only need to type in one TOD collection code into the horribly unsensitive touchscreens on the machines at my local station.

3) Doesn't charge a booking fee.

Any suggestion for a website that meet my three requirements?

The Virgin Trains East Coast website meets your three requirements, although it may be less good as regards rewards.

Many thanks to both of you.

I found my requirements are actually possible with Hull trains. I'm not sure if it is because it a little hidden, or I forgot how the old planning desk based website worked.
