Sounds good, I dont remember seeing Pullman vouchers before.
Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of vouchers per customer ?
It clearly says only one voucher per transaction, but if I make 6 trips can I print 6 vouchers and use one per trip ?
Or is it one voucher per customer, per promotion, no matter how many trips are taken ?

A proper intercity train has a minimum of 8 coaches, gangwayed throughout, with first at one end, and a full sized buffet car between first and standard.
It has space for cycles, surfboards,luggage etc.
A 5 car DMU (Diesel Multiple Unit) is not a proper inter-city train. The 5+5 and 9 car DMUs are almost as bad.

If you have to provide name/email then print off the voucher I'm guessing it's one per email address.

Well, if the voucher has no specific redemption code that can be struck off against a database, it theoretically can be used as many times as you wish.

I printed off a few last time the offer was available. They had a 1 month validity from time of printing. Initially I entered the same email address each time with no problems. There is no individual numbering or barcode on the voucher. The only numbering is '00427' which is the same number every time you enter your details, so must just be related to the offer and not a voucher count; and a date when the voucher was generated.

I then found it easier to copy the voucher image direct from the webpage and print out several copies on one sheet of A4. Saved on entering personal details every time. Now I know the T&Cs mention no photocopying, but there is nothing to say you cannot print off multiple vouchers.

T&Cs state 1 voucher per transaction. On a recent trip I bought 4 beers in two lots of two so I could use two vouchers!
