Don’t Buy if not in the UK

Apps functions are blocked and useless when your physically outside of the UK

Works 50% of the time

Website is a total nightmare, so not a good backup. I’ll look for other apps to buy train tickets. It’s not supposed to be as hard as this.

Does not work

“Our app works best in the UK” = The app does not work anywhere except in the UK. Fail.

Suspiciously low readable reviews?

Why are there over 500 ratings of this app and on 3 written reviews currently showing in the App Store? How many written comments are being removed? I use this app and it has improved in the last few months. It’s still very frustrating that the app will not function if it thinks you’re outside the UK (even when I’m in London!!), but the website can handle users that are connecting from outside the UK?

Not great for buying tickets

No charge for buying tickets, but they take so long to appear in the app. At least an email with a pdf version arrives fairly promptly so it can be scanned. And why can’t I add my tickets to my Apple Wallet?

Unusable

Cannot login due to “technical issue”. Been trying for 4 days. Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling. So completely unusable for me.

Class 159

I wanted to drive the southwestern railway class 159
