  • This offer valid nation wide for all the train service providers through scotrail and there's no limit to travel time as long as you book by 1st of September.


    dont forget this ends tomorrow (fri 1st sep) and if my theory is correct since the aug option willl now be gione you should be able to book tickets up to end of dec!
  • The booking system allows booking three months ahead. If you buy now at half price and then pay £5 to change the details at a later date e.g. for Christmas travel, then you have almost half price tickets.

    This is explained more in the thread linked to two messages above.

    it doesn't say when tomorrow though - it could be tomorrow am or all day
  • It's just gone midnight and it's now 1st September...

    The following error message pops up when trying to book tickets now:

    "You have entered an incorrect promotion code. Please try again."

  • i geniounly thought i could buy tickets on the 1st septmeber and it looks like ive missed out now. im really cheesed off. Can anybody gather support by emaiing the scotrail site asking for it to be put on until midnight 1st septmeber as thier promotion was very misleading. the more emails they get the better the chance. thanks guys!
