    ok I am a little p'd off, I found out about the promotion late last night... too late to get yday's Daily Mail... So now I have todays paper and hopefully 2moro's

    been round to a few newsagents today trying to get yday's paper but with no luck... how annoying! Even been on the Virgin site and found tickets available for the day I want to travel next week. Tempted to photoshop todays token. Anyone have a spare/extra token?

    If you pick up today's and tomorrow's paper, then download the voucher from the daily mail website (which has a bonus token on it) that's all you need as far as I'm aware.

    If you don't use the website form, you do need all three tokens.

    Push the boat out if you can afford it, I hear first class is worth the extra :)

    haha sorry got a little excited, had been phoning around trying to get yday's paper n didn't even realise...

    I decided to go for the cheaper return (I am a student afterall!)

    Is the offer valid per voucher? or can I print off another and get some more coupons for another journey?

    I've booked two journeys, a single (as I already have the outward ticket from my last journey) and a return a month later for a friend and myself. I think one voucher per booking of up to 4 people, single or return. If you book two single journeys in seperate transactions I think you'll need two sets of vouchers.

    In my experience of travelling on GNER with newspaper coupon promotions to London...the guards never ask to see your tokens...there are so many promotional fares going...they just want to check that your ticket is correct and not deal with a "me dog ate it" argument ;)
  • Can GNER tickets be booked online? Can't seem to find the offer on their site and the DM site just directs me to virgin trains. Thanks

    If you click book now next to any of the example journeys you should be able to book from there.

    Booking for GNER finishes on 8th February.
