    How have you been ripped off? Did you say that the card was going to be PURELY used for trains in the South West Trains area?
  • yes got it to go to london next week end only
  • Cost using railcard £46.20

    Cost of Groupsave £54.40

    This is for the Super Off-Peak Travelcard for 18 Aug.

    I am pretty sure railcard discounts are not permitted on groupsave tickets.
