It could have been the scanner at fault rather than the barcode.I did have an e ticket and had the pdf and that wouldn't scan either. I think you missed my point which was the guard would have no doubt accused me of having a fake ticket through no fault of my own had I not shown it in the app.
Think it was. I made a thread on it at the time. Someone who I believe works for LNER on the forum scanned it and it was fine.It could have been the scanner at fault rather than the barcode.
I’m not sure why you think you’d be in trouble. The barrier failed to read the valid ticket. The guard, by the sound of it, didn’t have a scanner so had no means of confirming any doubts he might have had about the ticket and had no choice but to accept it.Think it was.

The error message was 'This is not a valid ticket. Decryption failed.'. Luckily the guard wasn't too desperate but he probably only passed it as he'd seen it displayed in the app. At first he did seem to think it was fake when I showed him the .pdf on my phone, which was always my preferred way of showing it before I started using the LNER app with its Google integration. It was displaying it in the app that convinced him otherwise.
So yes a downside is you could be in trouble for what is in essence the railways fault
It's a bar code, or rather an Aztec code, nothing else. The text that might go with it is incidental to its primary function.Without having seen an e-ticket yet, I hope it can be contained into 1 page, even including the bar code. At the risk of exaggerating, we should not have to worry about printing off reams of paper.
