Like many of you, no doubt, I got an email from GWR telling me:

Hi Four Track, Now!

With Black Friday on the way, we wanted to give you the chance to seriously boost your Nectar point balance.

So every booking you make with GWR from 24 – 28 November gives you the chance to win one of ten 100,000 Nectar point prizes. Not only that, but there are 5x bonus points with every booking too – giving you 10 Nectar points for every £1 you spend on Advance Purchase fares.

Book Now

The "Book Now" was a link, and excitedly, I hit it, for I was just about to order a number of tickets. I broke it down to eight separate transactions to give me eight chances of winning 100,000 Nectar points, which would put me into great favour with Mrs FT, N!, who is truly the Queen of Nectar.

Then I saw, in small print,

Offer only available via promotional link.

Back to the doghouse. No biscuit.

Could you not repeatedly hit the link (in the email, I'm guessing) & book one lot of tickets each time?

Is there not a 'Book another Journey' button available in the same transaction?

It's now in the past.
