This offer was on months back and there was a way to use railcards with it, can anyone remember?

Cheers :)

    Hi Noctu,

    "Goingtothedogs" has put in the instructions for getting the railcard discount on the other thread.



    Thanks so much for this post, it will save me a wad of cash!

    Just a quick reminder for those that did this last time. Although it doesn't allow railcard discounts throught this link, if you go to www.firstscotrail.co.uk out the tickets you want in your basket, then book another random ticket through the link (then delete it) the discount should be taken off the railcard discounted ticket at the final stage.

    Have at look at this thread where it is slightly better explained!

    This appears to be massive as it allows you to book Travelcards for peak business travel and still get the discount!
    Can I help?
  • I just saves £53 on 4 return tickets to London.Well pleased as I have been looking for discounts.
