I wonder if anybody can tell me how long the friends and family railcards take to come through when using a 50% off code from the daily mail. My card run out last week and I am looking at ordering it online.

Many thanks

You have to order it online and you have to order it before 13 August.

From their T&Cs...

9. 50% saving is only available for online purchases of a 1-year Family & Friends Railcard and cannot be redeemed at stations.

10. 50% saving is valid between 13th July and 13th August 2012 with Promotional Code available to Daily Mail Railcard holders only.

So it probably doesn't matter how long it takes...just get your order in ASAP.

Mine arrived within about 3 days of ordering it online.

Thanks for the replies, I am just hoping it may arrive before Sunday (wishful thinking). I do not use the train lots but I have the opportunity to take my niece to the closing ceremony for the olympics as my OH is working there. The train tickets are much cheaper using the F&F railcard but I understand I can buy one at the station sameday but it is £28 instead of £14 ordering it online via The Mail promo code....mmmm decisions, decisions. I am trying to be MSE:D.

If anyone else can let me know how long theirs have been taking that would be fab!

Thanks once again
