  Why is it that the Network Railcard is never part of these promos?? Really annoying as none of the others apply to me

  • John says:

    Because they don’t need to encourage you to travel by train. They would get rid of it if they could

  Also, at Charles Tyrwhitt the code TUBE discounts all shirts online or in store to £22.95, Handy if you just want to get one shirt. This add has appeared on London Underground in the last week.

    For some reason the “TUBE” code doesn’t work for me !

  Slightly OT, has anyone used their £5 Heathrow Rewards vouchers yet from the conversion promo in May? Just wondering how long they take to put them through, particularly in Dixons

  • Rob says:

    Used £85-worth last week, no major issues.

      Great, hope they can put through £965 during my transit time on my next visit

  Dont forget that just £15 of Tesco shopping vouchers gets you a 12 month rail card absolutely “free”.

    Although annoying the Network Railcard isn’t on that offer either.

      The Network Railcard never has promotional offers on.

      I can think of only one years ago run by South West Trains, that’s it.

      As a commenter above suggested, we could perhaps just be grateful it exists at all – unlike the ‘national’ Railcards, its existence is not protected by statute.

        If you find someone with an annual gold card, they can get you a railcard for £10…

        • Aeronaut says:

          10 Aug10 August 21:08

          True, but they can only do this once per annual Gold Card (unless the ticket clerk doesn’t do what they are supposed to do!).

        • David says:

          @aeronaut – I’ve never known the ticket clerk to do what they’re supposed to do yet. And for those of us on a split ticket gold card (I.e I have two and save £400 by doing so) the opportunities are doubled!

  The CT offer comes on the heals of their price hike! It was 4 shirts for £100 but the last brochure that hit my mat had higher prices.

  OT my daughter is travelling on a Hand Luggage only ticket on BA to Stockholm Friday afternoon. I’m trying to remember how the self check in machine trick for picking seats works? Does she check in on her phone but not print or save boarding pass today? Or do nothing today?
  If anyone with status fancies guesting her into the lounge that would also be amazing 🙂 (Her flight is at about 5pm)
  Thanks in advance….

  Looking to use avios to book Christchurch to Cairns – no direct flights so need to change in Brisbaine. The BA website is showing availability with Qanta only in business but cannot book it online.

  Anyone know how many miles I would need and the cost?
  Also is the cancellation charges same as when booking BA flights? Thanks

  • Rob says:

    You can find the distance by using this website – http://www.gcmap.com/ – inputting the airport codes, eg LHR-HAM, and clicking ‘Distance’. Then look up the Avios needed in the chart in this article, remember it will be offpeak as it is a partner flight – https://headforpoints.com/2015/08/17/beginners-guide-to-redeeming-avios/

    • Genghis says:

      Or rather the ‘peak’ price?

  Railcard – The 10% discount is for the one year only card- not for the 3 year Railcard- not surprising i guess.
