    So which websites are you actually supposed to use as I've read that sites like TrainPal charge booking/admin fees, are you supposed to do it yourself and look on the TOC websites/apps? What about if you want to split your journey with multiple lines under different companies?

    Take a look at TrainSplit. They don't charge.

    Not strictly true.  There is a fee based on the savings achieved.  Still worth it if you save hundreds, which I did recently.

    "If a split ticketing saving is found a small percentage of the saving is charged so we can continue to maintain and further develop the site for a seamless user experience, but in all instances this will work out cheaper than the "through fare" ticket from your origin to your destination (without any splits). If there is no saving by splitting the fare, no fees are charged."
