1  All across the Great Western territory / Fare's Fair / Should I receive a discount for my season renewal? on: March 13, 2011, 11:32:46
I renewed my annual Maidenhead to Paddington (rail only) annual season ticket today. The lady in the ticket office confirmed that there would be a 5% discount available if I renewed my standard class ticket, but not if I wanted the "Eastbound first class" option, as this would not be a "like for like" renewal.

I wanted to check with the experts that she is correct. Details below:

Standard renewal: ^2496; Discounted rate ^2371
Easbound first class: ^2760; discounts do not apply.

Thoughts welcome...

Thanks for the replies - I guess not this year then.

I don't think it was a performance related offer - if memory serves, I didn't get a discount on last year's renewal...

3  All across the Great Western territory / Fare's Fair / Complimentary tickets offer for Gold Card renewal? on: March 01, 2011, 21:09:48
Hi all -
My annual season between Maidenhead and Paddington is due for renewal in two weeks (March 14th). Last year, FGW (First Great Western) mailed me details of an offer of some complimentary weekend tickets if I renewed.

I haven't received any details of a similar offer this year. Was it a one time deal only, or is this a regular offer?

cheers
Chippy
