90% off

Southern Rails 90% off what a con. Assuming you can get on the site the price offered is exactly the same as you can get on Trainline. I was quoted £40 for an off peak open return if this is the 90% off price then the full price is £400 for a trip from Barnstaple to Chippenhan??

    It is only on selected journeys. I did moan about that and then read the lines.

    My journey is disrupted every weekend when I want to go down to see my parents. Do they offer a discount on that line no. Full price as usual and as usual maintenance works on Sunday.

    I hate Southern

    It sounds like a great offer! I wont benefit from it as I live up north and am not planning on going down south just yet! Waiting for an interview that should be sometime in June in London but wonr come in time to book with this offer. When I have travelled with Southern they've been great! Excellent value with the oyster card! Its so value for money compared to fares up north!

    It was limited to a set amount of tickets, so I suppose when its gone, and wasn't on all journeys..... I did get a good result however, 90p single Gatwick to Worthing and 90p single Eastbourne to Gatwick.:beer::beer:
    Did you try putting your journey in as two single journeys?
