Thanks all!

Tomorrow, I wish to go from Leighton Buzzard to West Brompton at around 11am (and return later) As far as I can tell, my best bet would be to get a Milton Keynes Super off peak day travel card (as I believe you can start/stop short in travel cards?) But when I put MK to West Brompton into the...

Ah this makes sense. Definitely could have been much clearer!

The commonwealth games tickets include free travel in the Birmingham nNetwork area but - "ticket splitting is not permitted" https://helpcentre.birmingham2022.com/hc/en-gb/articles/6746910693265-Where-can-I-travel-to-and-from- I'm a bit confused about this - presumably it's not possible to...

Some people have suggested borrowing the money, and I think it's worth just saying that it's important to be really careful when borrowing money to cover money you owe. Its very easy to end up with an even more unaffordable debt. If this is the route you go down, make sure you are able to pay...

Would be very keen on this!

I've just had another look and it seems to be fixed now - hopefully will still work next time I need one! Thanks for trying, all!

Leighton Buzzard to Berkhamsted.

Yes, I am physically in possession of smartcard. I ended up going to the ticket office who also said they couldn't put a season ticket on the Smartcard, so I just bought a paper one! 1599198381 Yes, I originally asked the website for a season ticket from the 2nd September at around 1900 on...

Yes already got a Smartcard added to my online account. I just assumed that you could purchase the season ticket online!

I wish to buy a season ticket from tomorrow (Wednesday) for my Smartcard. But when I try to order online it says "Unavailable: Available from 01 September, edit your start date to allow time for delivery." Am I being thick or is "delivery" irrelevant with a Smartcard? Do I get my season...

Or an alternative take (same outcome) A missed connection is one in which a train a passenger planned to get left before the passeneger is on it. There is no missed connection in this case, since no such train exists. Therefore, Avanti did not cause a missed connection and therefore did not...

Hypothetical case (which may clarify some intuitions?) You take TOC P to station X. It is delayed. To your delight when you arrive at X, you see that TOC Q's train is also delayed so you have made te connection. But moments later, TOC Q cancels their train. In this case, my intuition is TOC...

Difference is that TOCs do that out of their own profit margins, but this is being paid for by taxpayers.

In their defence, they have just paid my delay compensation as requested on a return journey which was composed of split tickets and one change of route excess. (So 5 coupons in my uploaded photograph) Interestingly, I purchased the change of route excess on the return leg but was delayed on my...
