    If they don't take the points back of you you could get quite a few points this way and as long as you choose a ticket expensive enough that the £10 lost wasn't that bad.

    ie. £191.00 for a single from London to Aberdeen would give 9550 piggy points at the cost of £10


    yes and then like the uswitch glitch it will be stopped for abusing it.. what i meant is dont leave it in your account on the pretence of will they wont they take it back.. if they take it back you go into a minus, so you build it up again.

    what your saying would come to the attention of both the train service and pigsback eventually..

    ps i dont have a spare £100 odd quid to do that with as they take about 3 weeks to credit it back to you

    They are probably just out of stock at the moment.

    thinkin of getting the train this fri if i order through pigsback will i get my ticket b4 this fri or could will they might me printout a copy ?
    I'm perfectly certain they won't accept a printout. If you're going to a station which has a FastTicket machine, that's probably the safest way to go, but don't leave it too late to order: at midnight the day before I found the FastTicket machine ceased to exist ... so I couldn't order!

    i think the fact people can use any company to book tickets for any journey probably didnt help.. think they were hoping it would be just for there own company.. they might bring it back mabey not for 50% though

    I agree - tbh I don't think my conscience would let me do it and I equally don't have a spare £100 plus I'm still trying to get the points back from my weekend purchase.

    As for the CT seems newer members got one but not the rest
