    Thanks for this. Just ordered 3 adult and 2 child return tickets & got them for £22.80 instead of £45.60. I love this site.

  • Beware. I've tried to book around 30 times. Most times it says card declined on all of my cards and I've checked, there's no problem. On two occasions its gone through but there's just a blank where the fast ticket reference should be. I called the number for technical support and they say my tickets haven't been booked and my card has not been charged. I checked wuth Amex also and they've received no request for authorisation.

    Still working at the moment, although sometimes you need to register again with new email address! Just get a free Hotmaial address to book tickets with. You never need to use it agian.
  • hum, very interesting indeed, BUT what if the only train journey that interests you has to be on the 24 december?

    Train companies only take bookings up to end November. So probably best booking a flight if possible.
