    If I have read it correctly, Morf downloaded the tokens and forms from the Daily Mail website, therefore they are expecting you to print them? If that is the case, do they need printing in colour or doesn't it matter?

    Many thanks

    Hope this is helpful...

    I used the Daily Mail vouchers as downloaded from a link on this site - gave them to the guard on a "ONE" service from London to Norwich and he said - "Not sure what I'm meant to do with these" and stamped my ticket and moved on (he didn't take the vouchers), on the return journey they didn't even ask.

    thanx for that - checked out booking site but no tickets available for that journey:mad:
    Any other ideas/help??? :confused: Thankyou!
  • I'm now in total stress mode and need help please! I've spent 3 evenings so far trawling the web trying to get the best London (Luton) to Leeds deal and I'm tearing my hair out! I posted this in another part of the forum but know people have their 'favourite' bits so thought I'd try here too. My 25 year old cousin has started working for EasyJet - he started his training month on Monday and discovered that although they'll accomodate him whilst he's actually training he needs to make his own arrangements for days off. He's skint and can't afford to keep the room on at the hotel so wants to come to me but despite trying loads of combinations it all seems really expensive. He hasn't much money to spare so I want to help out. Basically he finishes at 5pm on Sunday and needs to be back for 8am on Wednesday at the cheapest possible price and not having to travel most of the night if at all possible! Can anyone point me in the right direction for split fares etc etc. He doesn't have a rail card yet but that's obviously an option. Thanks in advance :confused:
  • ok help pleaseee!!! dont have a railcard or anything and am looking for 2 adults leaving 4th returning 6th kings lynn to london kings cross have looked on the train line website but i cant seem to work it so i get a cheap ticket that includes the tube as well is it possible to do that??

    I've managed to get Oxford - Manchester £15 return! I've printed out the tokens in B&W (because I don't have access to a colour printer) and received my tickets on friday, having only booked wednesday night! (They said allow 4 days, but it was sent by 1st class!) I've looked at the tickets and I can't see anything different from normal full price bought online! So I hope they don't check.. but if they do ask.. and wonder why they arent on newspaper.. I'm just gonna say that I have a 'subscription to the Daily Mail online' and printed these out from there. They aren't photocopies. Thanks to Morf for posting up tokens :) How have people got on with these? Have many conductors asked to see the tokens? I'll tell you laterl how I got on with my journeys on tuesday and wednesday.
    Bella :)

    Re my above post.. I just want to tell you all that no conductors asked for any coupons at any point in my journey. (Both directions!) :D Each way my tickets were seen by 2 conductors and they just punched them as normal. No mention of coupons at all.

    Arriva trains website have got an advance return ticket from cardiff to manchester return for £18 for that date. You need to be quick in booking though as the cheap tickets soon sell out.

    I'm looking to go to Edinburgh on the morning/afternoon of the 4th April from Crewe and return the other way back on the 11th. Best I can currently find is £56.00 for two adult fares, is there a cheaper option hat anyone knows of?

    If anyone is particularly qualified to answer the following, I would also appreciate it. I am going with my wife and my two sons, being 2 and 4 years old. I'm worried that although I don't have to pay for either of them, if the train was busy, we would not be able to get the four year old in a seat. Are these trains that leave around midday particularly busy or should i get a child seat for him to make sure? The answer would seem obvious, but if I pick one of these up and the train isn't busy, I'll be kicking myself! :rotfl:
