Bitecard - does it still exist?
Many years ago DH and I obtained free Bitecards, which gave a 10% discount at some catering outlets on mainline rail stations. I've used mine fairly recently, but now can't find it, and wonder if I failed to pick it up. Can't find any way of applying for a replacement, site times out etc. So is this now defunct?

Less than an hours drive.Approx £300 - They offer flex booking for an additional £100 (allows date to be changed up to 24 hours in advance).

They refunded us but at 6pm last Thursday the family and dog literally had nowhere to stay. Luckily we found an Airbnb that would take us that night,…
