LNER Cashback

ForumUser7

Hello,

I note the following exclude all season tickets in the terms, but I was wondering if anyone had still successfully been able to receive cashback on LNER Season Tickets through the following provider cashback programs please?

I would appreciate if you could please reply with the provider, and approximate month/year/date in which this occurred so I can determine if it is still likely to apply.

• Virgin Money 10%
• NatWest 10%
• Royal Bank of Scotland 10%

Thank you very much!

I can't help you on season tickets - it looks to be the same platform as their main booking engine, utilising the same logins, but that isn't a guarantee it'll go through with the same merchant details.

I just wanted to add that if you also enroll your payment card in Airtime Rewards you'll likely get the rewards from both your issuer's scheme and them (if either).

I don’t know about the banks you list but I happen to have noticed Barclays are doing 8% for LNER for a few more days

Barclays are doing 8% for LNER, however unless the correct debit card is registered under their rewards scheme, there is a good chance that they won't pay a penny.

Note that their "missing cashback" feature can't handle "wrong/old card details" registered and will reject any attempts to enquire about missing cashback.

(Been trying to get Barclays to sort out their 5% cashback on debit card spend for three weeks now)

One thing I have learned with the LNER cashback offers is always check the exact terms.

One offer may be on any and multiple purchases through their site.

Other, like current Barclays one in my app, is for spend of £70+

My tickets are less than a fiver a time, so not using Barclays' card atm.

I haven’t bought season tickets but I have bought LNER vouchers. You might then be able to use the vouchers to buy the season tickets.

I haven’t used any of the bank’s you have listed for this, but it has worked with Amex (in May) and Halifax (multiple times since the middle of the year, but I did have to get it added manually once). It has also stacked with Airtime Rewards and Nectar Connect when that was around, so feels a fairly robust method.

I wonder if the 10% Uber credit offer will work for season tickets

That's an interesting option I've not heard of before. Is it a temporary offer or standard please?

Doesn’t look like it does unfortunately - of course if anyone finds otherwise, please let me know

Virgin bank is offering 12% cashback for the first purchase on the Virgin Trains app. (You can buy tickets for any company through that app.) The app also gives Virgin Red points for buying, and also does split ticketing. So it's a good app to use.

Good offer, but unfortunately doesn’t seem to retail season tickets
