    EMR refusing Scottish money

    And businesses would prefer you not to use cash as it removes security risks and handling charges. You need a better bank account - I can transfer money between banks and it is available to spend immediately.

    Notice of Intention to Prosecute - PLEASE HELP

    That's good news, and that it's an amount you feel is fair. Now you must make sure you don't repeat this, as I am sure you are aware.

    EMR refusing Scottish money

    Such blissful innocence. The railway does, it's the TVMs that don't (in the case of the Flowbird TVMs that LNER have, and presumably those of Northern and Chiltern, because they are too big for the note slot).

    “New research shows passengers wasting money by booking late”

    And is probably true, because the LNER web and app channels have tickets for LNER journeys released earlier than other retailers.

    EMR refusing Scottish money

    I don't believe any TVMs accept £50 notes, and I would be very surprised if any accept notes issued by Northern Ireland banks.

    Expired railcard

    They are looking to recover money that they should have received but haven't, for one reason or another. In the case of these refunds, if you can see how it looks you can understand what they see. Some will say it is fishing, but that isn't going to help you. All you can do at this point is to...

    In these cases did you refund the full return ticket?

    West Midlands fare evasion - potential prosecution

    If you are after advice please start your own thread. It is forum policy to only have one case per thread so that messages do not get mixed, and every case is different, no matter how similar they may appear at first glance.

    Delay repay/refund of unused leg of ticket

    Correct. Refunds for unused tickets are always claimed from the retailer.

    Bedford EMR Off Peak Confusion

    There are actually some CDR fares that have an LS code, which does have an evening peak restriction. I don't think these affect Bedford though.

    GWR refusing to refund on board 1st class upgrade

    Are you sure it wasn't £64.90? That is the difference between Anytime 1st and Standard singles from St Austell to Reading. So he's given you the cheapest upgrade based on ticket acceptance, and I suspect you didn't hold Anytime tickets which would mean he's been quite generous.

    Request for help: LNER Fare Trial Ripoff

    The Off Peak trial, if that is what you are referring to, is only a temporary measure at this stage.

    EMR refusing Scottish money

    However, the railway does accept notes (but not coins) from Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man.

    Accidentally been using expired Railcard

    Northern Rail usually settle with those who engage with them, and it sounds like you are as prepared as you reasonably can be. If you have held previous railcards it may be worth digging those out or any evidence you have of them as we have seen recently that train companies are looking further...

    Accidentally been using expired Railcard

    Without knowing who you are dealing with we cannot give useful advice. This is rarely the case - if this ends in court the prosecution will be for a relatively minor offence. If you are a member of a trade union or professional body you could ask for guidance on this. In general terms it is...

    What could happen for not giving Revenue Officer my details

    They do have evidence - the details they are given are part of the evidence.

    Football

    There certainly is - it's one of Forest wanting to put pressure on referees by suggesting that every decision goes against them. The plan to do this was set out when they chose to employ Clattenburg to try and give this policy legitimacy. Happily it's now backfiring. If you do believe that you...
