    I need a flexible ticket, but TicketySplit's only giving me advance tickets (Tiverton-Alnmouth £180 off-peak single!!). Would be great if options to split this can be added in (or made more prominent if I've missed them!). Thanks.

    What journey are you making? Have you tried Trainsplit?

    Bril - will bookmark Trainsplit too. (Takes it down to a still eye-watering £146, so will need the inconvenience of an advance ticket!!)

    Mmmmm.


    You have posted about this outfit 12 times already in this thread (twice on this page alone - as well as another 6 times (and counting) elsewhere in this forum)


    (As well as telling us you are not allowed to post a link to it, then giving us one)!


    You also aren't allowed to spam either

    Beware that this company being spammed charges you a fee for "helping" you save!


    Buy the tickets from other suppliers that give you cashback and rewards (eg nectar) and do it the MSE way!

    Better than the fees charged by the MSE "ticketysplit" tool, powered by the Trainline, which can only work with single journeys, without checking if return tickets are cheaper

    It's well known that trainline is not the place to buy any tickets from because of their fees.


    There are totally fee free alternatives where you can buy split ticket type journeys from and get cashback as well as loyalty points/nectar etc too!


    Much more MSE than paying any ticket seller their fees!

    Well isn't it much more MSE to fly instead of taking the train as it's much cheaper flying via Europe than taking the train from A to B ;)

    Or being more MSE by taking the slower coach.

    Good Morning
    Just attempted to book a ticket Bristol To Manchester, if I booked the ticket I would save £0.65p plus the booking fee of £0.75. thereby paying an extra 10 each way for a split ticket!!
