Train tickets. On the day price?
So I can find out how much it would cost to by train tickets in advance but how can I find the price that I would be charged if I buy on the day?

Appalling experience trying to get a refund from QJump
I thought that the extra that you pay for an Anytime Day Return ticket would mean getting a refund would be fairly straightforward. This appears not to be the case at QJump. I hadn't even collected my ticket from the self-service ticket machine so was a little unsure how to proceed. Noticing that their Customer Services…
