## TrC | TfW Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "The app’s ok, but using it to claim is shockingly bad"
I haven’t really ever had a problem using the app to book tickets, but trying to use it - or the website. - would test the patience of a saint. I’ve never managed to make it work. It’s so appalling, I can’t only assume that’s exactly how the designed it (not) work. Surely, no app developers could unintentionally make a process so spectacularly awful.
-- thatstrangehill, 2024-12-18

### ***-- "Login issues"
Despite setting and saving my password from previous bookings there was yet another issues, so I have just processed this as a guest
-- Donezkfkfkdkdkdkkdj, 2024-11-29

### ***** "Good app"
Its very good apps. Easy to take various type of tickets and manage tickets on the app
-- rsafeer, 2024-11-10

### *---- "Awful App"
This is how not to do an app. Nothing is intuitive, outdated, awkward and annoying to use. Scrap it and start again.
-- v.opez, 2024-11-07

### *---- "Ridiculous launch times to open the app"
app with basic app. ridiculous launch times to open it for a train ticket app. I have to wait up to 10-20 seconds for the app to open.
-- Lulio86885, 2024-10-25

### *---- "Flakey at times."
App can take intermittently take ages to open.
Also today I logged on and the app informed me there was an offer for multiflex tickets ending today so went to buy tickets  and use the offer but there was no offer when getting to the checkout really poor in app alerts.
-- webb1981, 2024-10-05

### *---- "Still useless"
Assumed to new app would be better, but will be deleting again. It remains a pretty useless app and cumbersome to use etickets without the ability to add the to Apple wallet. So you always have to open the app for ticket checks. If you don’t want to pay Trainline fees, use another rail company such as Northern who have compatibility with Wallet.
-- *R2TD, 2024-09-30

### *---- "Doesn’t always work"
The app only works sometimes, then doesn’t recognise your password. you send a password reset email and it says that the new password doesn’t meet the criteria, to the extent that you give up and buy the ticket as a guest. This is very poor when TFW are threatening to fine people ( at my local train station there is no ticket booth and the machine is hopeless).
-- Morgas1234, 2024-09-01

### **--- "Works, but only just"
Downloaded to avoid Trainline’s booking fees while travelling in Wales.  The app works, but it is not a good experience. As soon as I had registered I tried to add my address. The postcode search found my address, but only after I realised I had to tap on the tiny “&gt;” symbol to select it. Tapping on the text (“X number of addresses found” or some such) next to this symbol aborted the search. Happily, it turns out this doesn’t really matter as selecting your address does nothing. It takes you to the manual entry screen, but the app does not populate the input boxes. Again, this is not a problem as, once you have taken the time to enter your address, the save button does nothing. Did no one take the time to test this?
-- Sigisme, 2024-08-28

### ***-- "Xxxxxxxx"
Xxxxxxxx
-- Xxxxxx123yyytwgaf, 2024-08-12

### ***-- "User experience"
A few niggles with some of the options, title didn’t work and I think it could be made easier to purchase returns. But otherwise it’s ok
-- what happend ro annonomous, 2024-07-25

### ***-- "Could be better"
With the new time table implemented to improve service there are some more changes required with short intervals, it would be helpful to have the arrival platform and departure platform displayed it make the process easier to navigate especially with children
-- Willymucher, 2024-07-16

### *---- "App"
Cannot find live train information when you have to use 2 trains to complete your journey.
-- Claire M-B, 2024-07-05

### *---- "Not catered to disabled customers"
Cannot book assistance not wheelchair concession tickets, so highly discriminatory and offensive
-- marilynvoi, 2024-06-02

### ***-- "Won’t show live data any more"
Each update seems to reduce functionality. The app has now stopped showing me live data on my regular services, so I have no idea whether they are running to time, or even at all. I have to resort to the National Rail App or Trainline for information on my local services. I prefer to purchase tickets from my local provider but it’s hard when you don’t provide the key information.
-- Henleygoldnet, 2024-05-19

### *---- "Major flaw"
If it wasn’t for one major flaw that can make this app unusable it would be good. You need to be able to download the ticket to your phone wallet not the app wallet as the app often loses connection to its server and then NOTHING is available or able to be shown on your device.
-- Prjblue130, 2024-05-12

### *---- "App broke"
Bought a Multiflex ticket on Thursday 18th April. App shows a live ticket but doesn’t show the actual ticket so unable to access or use it on the line. Also can’t book any new tickets as the app won’t let you input start and end stations.

Currently £43.00 down and seemingly no way of getting those tickets available or refundable.
-- Bwlmog76, 2024-04-21

### *---- "Fussy and flakey"
The user has to do so much to get very little. For example, buying a ticket involves so many different screens and boxes to check. It does remember your previous journeys and rail cards and puts them at the top of the list but there isn’t an option of buying the same ticket for the next day for commuters. On top of that, the user has to view, then download and then activate the ticket purchased - online (when most stations here have no access to the internet).

Once you do have a ticket with a specific date and time, the app doesn’t let you know of any delays or cancellations. There have been so many problems with the trains, but the app is useless and I have to find out before I lose signal on the National Rail website! Then once I realise the train is delayed or cancelled the app doesn’t automatically offer me a refund, I have to go to a website when back online. 

If it were a restaurant with a reservation I’ve made, the restaurant would contact me immediately if there was a problem. Otherwise the restaurant would be labelled “flakey”, unreliable and a let down.
-- 100% please, 2024-04-10

### **--- "Why isn’t every train travel app like LNER’s"
A bit difficult to navigate and in particular to find what catering is available on what train (journey from Manchester to Cardiff and back). 

Not easy to tell exactly what the app is doing when I clicked on a journey- there doesn’t seem to be an indication that you are actually selecting that journey and then being directed to select your return journey,  as opposed to looking what the level of service is on each journey. 

There doesn’t seem to be an option to look for either std class or first class fairs only. 

It maybe ok for basic journeys but I wouldn’t be actually convinced I was buying the correct ticket for my chosen journey. 

All developers should take a look at the LNER app which is far and above anything that anyone else has developed.
-- vip no go, 2024-04-05

### **--- "Too many clicks"
Far too many screens to buy a ticket. Takes 3 clicks on trainline for an open return - this took at least 6 and hadn’t remembered my railcard so I had to start again. Plus can’t add to apple wallet
-- why 7296, 2024-03-28
