A small gripe, but every ticket I've ever bought online for a seat in 1st has always without exception been C10. Anyone else find the same?
I always ask for forward facing, and get C10 on both the out and return journey, so I console myself that at least I'll be forward facing in one direction. Not so yesterday, as my trains were formed with the 1st class coach at different ends so C10 was backwards both ways.
I sat in an unreserved single (1+1 facing) seats so was happy, but that brings up another puzzle - why when booking a single ticket does the system allocate a seat at a table for four, when single seats are available?
I don't know why the system bothers to ask our preferences when it totally ignores them. I book on the VTEC site for ease - wonder if I'd be better using TPE 's own website?
