Arriva Trains Wales - Benefits

[Natz]

Hi there, I am new to this. Ive just been offered a job at Arriva Trains and was wondering if any workers would be able to tell me the benefits of the company. Its early days yet I haven't had my medical.
Do I get free rail travel? And my partner if not at same address?
Thank You

You get your normal Priv rate for yourself which gives you 75% off the anytime ticket price.
You get passes for free travel on ATW, crosscountry, chiltern, Londkn overground, Tyne and Wear metro and Grand Central.

They also do various discounts from time to time with local companies, for example cheap rooms at the maldron hotel in Cardiff.
Partner has to live at same address.

Congratulations, what position have you got?
You also get free travel on Arriva buses in the North West and North Wales too. To get the perks for your partner, you have to prove you are living together.

You might have to learn German, though, to keep the mother company happy !
