Hi All,

Though this might interest some because they look like they be valued for advanced etc

NEW! Triple vouchers' value on train tickets. Tesco's added some new rewards. The highlight is 3x voucher value for rail travel with ticket shop RedSpottedHanky; it includes many cheap advance fares, you can use railcards and there are no booking fees. In our check, prices were standard, so this is a big saving

Mornington Crescent  Grin

I've consulted the 'Standard Octagonal Reverse Queensbury' rules and it appears that Denton to Mornington Crescent is an illegal move. Unless you are playing Hooper's Mainline Variation....  Grin

Hi all

I have recently looked at using Tesco points to purchase rail tickets and must admit to being a little suspicious of redspottedhanky.

An enquiry for two adults and a child day return Worcester to Motspur Park (via London) next Saturday with a Family Railcard returns a cheapest fare of over ^81.When going via National Rail it is ^62. No matter what I do I cannot get "RSH" to agree with "NR» (Network Rail - home page)".
Trying the "not London " route via Ascot (which is about ^57 on "NR") still produces the ^81+ fare on "RSH"

I appreciate this is a very good deal but "RSH" do claim to find the lowest fares and the ^81 they asked for is what a non Tesco customer would have been charged

When describing the journey chosen the website identifies the number of changes needed, but I cannot find where on the site you can confirm where those changes take place.

If you wish to discuss this with "RSH" the only direct route is a premium phone line (^1 per minute). No email contact is available.

I would appreciate the views of those better skilled than myself
Thanks
John

From 1st December 2011, the value of Clubcard vouchers when used on redspottedhanky.com will be 2x. Down from 3x.  Sad

That is ^10 of Clubcard vouchers will be worth ^20 spend at redspottedhanky.com.

Anyone with vouchers to spend and wanting to use then at redspottedhanky should get converting now to take advantage of the current 3x offer.
