    Just booked London to Brighton, travel in August, for 50p each way. The site was very slow. First class, if available, £1.25.

    was hoping to get Portsmouth to Brighton, but no chance. :( All expensive fares.
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    Been on the site for 2 hours now trying to book tickets for £1 each way - Site is not just SLOW its RIDICULOUS! :mad:

    I got to payment page once but then nothing happened...

    Getting peeved now!!!

    ( Hate to think like what its going to be like tomorrow - But I think tons of people have had the same idea of seeing if it went live @ midnight and tons of people still on there trying to knab their tickets )

    Well JUST GET OFF THERE PLEASE and let me get mine so I can go to bed!!! lol
  • 4 HOURS later .... loads of frustration & 2 glasses of wine later I FINALLY got it booked...

    Victoria to Brighton on Bank Hol Sunday when the family planned to go anyway

    My goodness that was a MISSION - Hope its better for everyone else tomorrow :)

    ( There seem to be loads of tickets left - Selected journeys only!! )
