Railcard discount for IHG bookings

[dst87]

I’ve still never been asked for it, but now that digital railcards are available I’m never without my railcard. Best option IMO!

I used to sometimes book govt rate on IHG (as a public sector worker). Only once got asked, at a random HIE in the US. Produced an ID card with photo and no employer and explained that the card didn’t show the employer for security reasons (sort of true) and was allowed to check in. I don’t think the individual was happy about it but what could they do? In lots and lots of other stays (including some other hotels on the same trip) I’ve never been asked for proof. But it can happen.

Looks like this may be dead now as the link doesn’t work and I can’t find it on the NR site. Sod’s Law just after I bought a railcard!

Using corporate code 786996886 still brings up Railcard discount for me

I notice that this offer is no longer listed on the railcard website. The code seems to still work for now, but could be a good thing coming to an end? 🤔

Edit: damn I had this page already open and didn’T see the above comments. Sorry for the noise.

Yes – only until the end of the year it seems:

Offer is available to book from January 26th 2022 until December 31st 2022.

And has to be between Thursday and Sunday which might explain some lack of search availability mentioned above?

Found a link that still seems to be live: https://www.ihg.com/content/gb/en/deals/partner-offers/railcard
