Anytime Return U-turn
Posted in Fares, Rail Conditions on March 4, 2009| 1 Comment »
ATOC has finally succumbed to the pressure businesses and individuals placed on to it after reducing the validity of the Anytime (previously Open) Return tickets. Before simplification both outward and return portions were valid for 1 month, however afterwards the outward portion was cut back to only being valid for a single day.
ATOC have now decided that the outward portion will be valid for 5 days on a trial period starting 16th March.
Amendment To Outward Portion Validity – Anytime Return
Following a review of Fares Simplification which took place last year, the validity of the outward portion of First & Standard Class Anytime Return tickets will be altered from ‘date on ticket’ to ‘five days’ (including date on ticket). For example, a First Class Anytime Return with an outward date of 20th March will be valid for outward travel until 24th March inclusive. The return portion will remain valid for one month from the date on the outward portion.
This change will apply to tickets sold and dated from 16th March. This will take place for a trial period and will be reviewed in September.
Your Ticket Issuing System will automatically be updated by your supplier to incorporate this change.
First & Standard Class Anytime Singles, and Anytime Day Singles & Returns remain valid on date shown only.
Kind regards
ATOC
Penalty fare appeals
Posted in Fares, Service cutbacks on March 2, 2009| Leave a Comment »
Penaltyfareappeal.co.uk is a site run by revenue protection staff, who realise that the TOCs are unfairly cutting staff and making it difficult for customers to purchase tickets and get fare information. The TOCs also have extremely complicated rules which make it easy for an innocent customer to end up with the wrong ticket.
They will assist and support passengers with penalty fare appeals, for a reasonable price of £4. However throughout March they are offering this service free of charge.
Please mention this service to anyone who you know who could benefit from it.
