Anyway I got this message when I'd paid
Family & Friends Railcard and YHA have joined forces to help you and your family travel further and pay less to stay!

To claim your FREE one year Family & Friends YHA membership valued at £22.95 call: 0870 770 8868 (within UK) or +44 1629 592 700 (outside UK) and quote ATOC2.

Please check out our latest Railcard Offers for full details and terms and conditions.

Don't just sit there plan your next trip now!

Code^Express has tried it and was asked for the Reference Number so you have to actually buy the Half price Family Railcard at £12 to get the free YHA membership worth £22 so still a good deal if you'll actually use them - saving £36

    Beware, YHA customer service will ask for your railcard reference number.
    Thanks for the update and I'm sorry about that I haven't tried it yet. :o
    I'll edit the title and post to say you have to buy the Railcard.

  • I came here to tell you all, but you already know!!

    You need to wait until you actually receive your railcard, as the number they want is on it - so buy the railcard now, print the free YHA offer, receive your card, then collect your membership!

    I've applied for the Railcard, and although it hasn't arrived yet, the reference number I need is in the confirmation email they sent me....I hope. Going to try ringing tomorrow..
    Great find, OP!

    It didnt'work..they do actually ask for a different number. My railcard still isn't here....hope it comes before our holiday. grrrrrrrrrrrr
  • Applied for Friends and Family Railcard and received it within one day. However, I never got a confirmation email, so don't know how to apply for the YHA membershi. Did anyone else have this problem.
