Following a limited trial with student tickets, First Bus in Bristol, Bath and the West have rolled out their mTickets app for purchase and use of a range of weekly and longer season tickets. They've also made available Carnets of 5 FirstDay tickets for each area where a corresponding paper day ticket is available. There's also Carnets of 10 single journey tickets available.

On a personal note I'd like to see the app available on Windows Phone.

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

We've had them in Cornwall a few months. Can only buy daily weekly monthly and annual tickets.
Quite a few contacts use the month one which gives unlimited travel in Cornwall for the month for ^100
