This smells very strongly of fish. But do check with GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) to confirm this! You can usually get a quick response on X via @GWRhelp

Over strong smell I'm afraid. Do NOT click on the link or better, even leave that link alone in the 1st post.

GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) are regularly advising people on social media not to fall for these £3 travel for a year travel cards adverts. Many reply to say they report them but they don’t get taken down.

A little bit of personal responsibility does help. If you think rail companies/government can give a years travel for just £3, you might need to give you head a bit of a wobble.

I had a post pop up on Facebook with the £3 card offer which I immediately reported as a scam but FB said it was ok!
So just remember "if it seems too good to be true, it probably (most certainly) is"

[Ralph Ayres]

Almost laughably bad (grammar, terminology, the survey itself, the fake comments and then the change in price to £2.50 - I couldn't resist a cautious look!), but I presume that's at least partly to filter out people less likely to be taken in.

Given FB are now abandoning their fact checking, that doesn’t surprise me.
