Hi folks, I've got three of the leaflet codes for 10% discount off XC▸ (Cross Country Trains (franchise)) advance tickets that I found on the train when cleaning it at New Street this evening. (Don't tell the unions!) I was working a different depot's late night turn and the train turned round at New Street.

The tickets need to be booked by 4th September from a specific website address and are only valid for XC advance tickets (I also believe for XC& connections too).

First come first served and only one code per person to keep it fair, I promise not to discriminate against the XC baiters on here!

Please note that I can't guarantee the codes will work as the leaflets were left on the train, I wouldn't imagine that someone would copy the code down and leave the leaflet!

RTS

Mods have asked me to request anyone wanting a code to contact me by personal message and that I advise you of Ts&Cs as printed on the leaflet.

Still all up for grabs, no use to me, I'm probably one of the few on here who doesn't need to buy XC▸ (Cross Country Trains (franchise)) tickets at one point or another!

One down, two still up for grabs!

Just to re-iterate that these are discount codes passengers have left behind, I haven't nicked a big pile of leaflets off the marketing team!

Also have a load of XC▸ (Cross Country Trains (franchise)) railcard holders if anyone wants one, might be able to make it to the firstgreatwestern beer shop meeting next Weds too!

Cheers for that BNM, amazing how difficult the iPhone is to master when it insists on 'correcting' everything I type!
