West Midlands Railway - Delay Repay
I recently submitted a Delay Repay cancellation claim, using West Midlands Railway's online system, for a journey yesterday (Thursday) from Stafford to London Euston. This is what happened: My train left Stafford on time. At Rugby, no driver could be found, and the train was eventually cancelled. After waiting for a while,…

Delay Repay: who to claim from
I had multiple train cancellations this morning and as three different companies run 'services' from my departure station to my destination, I am not sure which company to claim from. The first one I went for (cancelled), the next one (also cancelled), or the one after (also cancelled)? I bought my ticket at my departure…

Been buying wrong train ticket for 20 months!
Hi MSE, This is my first post! Yesterday I realised I have been buying the wrong train ticket on my Oyster card for the 20 months I have been living in Putney, Zone 2. This is because I use the machines and Oyster (rarely a person there), and it's never been clear the best / cheapest ticket to buy! I thought buying a…

I didn't receive all of my train tickets?
Hi I bought some train tickets online. The first journey from Brighton to London and then the second journey from London to Brighton. I bought them separately, from Brighton to London I only got 2 tickets (I didn't get the ticket which says "retain for inspection" and has the seat number), but from London to Brighton I got…

Virgin complaint - am I wasting my energy?
This was my first experience travelling to Birmingham today, and my first experience going via London Euston and travelling on Virgin Trains. The outward train journey wasn't the best - they wouldn't allow me through the ticket barrier at the advertised time I booked and there was an argument between the customer service…

Making a formal complaint to TFL
I've YET AGAIN been charged incomplete journeys while using AndroidPay. TFL are laughing all the way to the bank. I do not believe that these are innocent mistakes. How do I make a formal complaint?

If train is cancelled due to bad weather
After paying a small fortune for some train tickets, I am now worried that this predicted bad weather could lead to widespread cancellations. I have read MSE info on this but it only seems to refer to delays and refunds. Two questions - if my train is cancelled due to bad weather do I get a refund and does it matter, as…

Super Off Peak Day Travelcard
It's possible to buy online (eastmidlandstrains.co.uk, thetrainline.com) a super off peak day travel card leaving Market Harborough at 0914 on a weekday with reserved seats. As the 0914 is usually a peak train I wouldn't expect a super off peak to be valid. Is the day travel card an exception or is there a glitch in the…

Cannondale Serial Numbers
Does anyone know how you can tell the model and model year of a Cannondale bike just from the serial number? I need to find out whether a bike is the 2016 model or the 2017 model and searching online has drawn a black because the exact same colours and pattern were used on both the 2016 and 2017 bike.
