I think it very likely that this will only be available for purchase as a CCST from Merseyrail stations. Just like the Daysaver, no 3rd party online ticket retailer will be able to sell it.
This is indeed exactly how it's been configured in RCS. It's sellable on CCST by the HE licensee, fulfilled at either a TVM or ticket office.I think it very likely that this will only be available for purchase as a CCST from Merseyrail stations.

I had a look, and credits are still showing as being earned on rail bookings. So long may this continue.Will Uber be continuing the 10% credits offer beyond 31st December ?
I'll be using the forum's site this year for GWR and GB Rail Sales.Some GWR advance tickets will be sold at half price between 2nd and 9th January, for travel between 10th January and 13th April.
100,000 standard-class seats and 50,000 First-Class seats will be on offer.

Half-price January sale on GWR train tickets
There will be a new year day on Great Western Railway (GWR), offering half-price savings on most of its Advance fares, with some day trips possible at very low prices.www.ianvisits.co.uk
An example I found on the forum site was Reading to Bristol.I think it was the case last year as well, but the GWR sale doesn't seem particularly useful if you have a railcard, with e.g. non-sale advance tickets for Paddington to Plymouth and back on the 16th January being £67 with the sale or £72, including first class outbound, without.
No.I assume not, but can a 16-25 Railcard be applied to the Merseyrail £2 weekend day ticket?
Both the companies mentioned, had one at this time last year.Any Northern or TPE Flash sale imminent?
How is the train credit
back changing?
From next week, 10% back in Uber Credits
will only be available for uber One
members, whilst non-members get 5%
credits back.'
Whats more, to help you keep saving on
your train fares, we're launching split
tickets on Uber next week too. Plus, don't
forget we don't charge a booking fee
As a valued Train user, we wanted to offer
you 3 months free on Uber One so you can
continue to earn 10% back in credits on
your train journeys on Uber.2
Northern's was the first Wednesday of January; I'm not surprised that they didn't announce one on New Year's Day, but no word of one this year yet. TPE's was the 16th to 19th last year, but if the GB Rail Sale's on at the same time, I'm not sure if there'd be anything for TPE specifically.Both the companies mentioned, had one at this time last year.
I'm travelling next Monday with TfW and usually get an on the day advance. Am I best waiting until next week to book this in case it's included in the sale?Next week
So when is the date of travel for the sale?Tickets for travel on 13 January won't be in the GBRS. The upcoming press release is embargoed until Friday.
Press release is Friday as stated by the PP.So when is the date of travel for the sale?
Just sent you a DM.So when is the date of travel for the sale?

Does the GB Rail Sale include standard off peak tickets too?Tickets go on sale between 14-20 Jan, for travel between 17 Jan and 31 Mar.
Does it include ScotRail (I'm fairly sure last year it was just on crossborder routes), and any idea if LNER will be excluding weekends again? Will tickets for multi-TOC journeys be available?The wording of the offer is
"Train operating companies across England, Wales and Scotland are working together to offer up to 50% off selected Advance tickets on over 2 million journeys. The discounted fares will be available from participating train operating companies and ticket retailers. Where a participating train company doesn't offer Advance tickets, Off-Peak tickets may be offered as an alternative."
So as GWR do offer Advance tickets, I suspect the answer to your question will be no.
Thank you. So as far as I can tell, that's a yes for my first question, a no for my third, and unsure for the second.In BR Fares, you can find out if your desired journeys will be in the sale by looking out for the following:
