Hello so my girlfriend is a daily Merseyrail commuter to get to college and today she repurchased her Term Ticket but it costed her 20 pound more than usual. This was strange as no where on the Merseyrail website does it specify this increase in price other than a blatant difference on the ticket itself. So for some context, the ticket is only valid on weekdays and is no longer valid past 8pm due to the restrictions set on the term ticket itself.
But when I looked at the ticket, it says different to what it usually says. So it usually says MRAIL 16-18 TT but the new ticket says valid via any permitted route. Does this mean both day and time restrictions are lifted. Was the extra price due to this restriction being lifted. Please help as the restriction being lifted will save money when coming home after 8pm and also if it doesn't have any restrictions then what gives for the higher price? There is no other routes at Rock Ferry to take so is it just more for nothing?.
Pictures below will show both tickets
Please ignore the 0.00 price tag, it was a replacement ticket. The original costed 174.45. Identifiable information has been blurred for her protection of course. The validity being slightly longer might make you think that's why its more expensive but its been the same price for the last 2 years regardless of length other than it just been a full term. Thanks
