I know the government is taking the subsidy of the coaches but this is incredible. Now pensioners have to pay more than non- pensioners.:(

Return journey to London for 2 pensioners £60.00
for non-pensioners £57.0

This is for 23rd Dec, and at other times it normally costs us £10. I expected to pay a lot more, but not more than non-pensioners. :mad:

    Just book as non-pensioners

    EDIT: Or not - "You can still use the scheme providing you book by midnight on 31 October 2011 and are travelling on or before 31 August 2012" - also try booking for the day before, as Friday is a peak, and you don't get the same discount
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
