My train home was 20 minutes late. Submitted a delay repay claim for a train earlier in the afternoon that ran 90 minutes late.

What train, I will do the same

Not only is my train from Victoria ram-packed, late and sweltering, but a ten year-old from 1998 is posting to CL

that explains the boner!

Are they handing out free Rolos or something?

Why, you going to get yourself down there?

She certainly did a number on the education system...

You lot must be thick.

You read there are 2hrs delay, so leave work at 17:00 and just jump on the 15:23.

If this trouble carries on I'm going to have a fine collection of Costa coffee gift cards courtesy of southeastern.
Every time there's a delay I seem to get lucky but it would be rude to refuse a freebie. Keep them coming SE.

If you leave work early, go a different longer route home avoiding the trains, can you still claim delay repay? I'd have missed an appointment (again) if if have left work at 6 and got my normal train home? I left at 4.45 and went via Greenwich and still didn't get home till half 6. Surely they should compensate me?

Left work, walked onto train running half hour late. Went pub for three hours. Walked onto train running 90 mins late. Furious

Costs more than getting the delay repay rubbish, end up spending more in the pub. Tonight was the nadir.

Am I right in saying that there are no direct trains from London Bridge to Charlton on Saturday?

Correct. But if you can get yourself to Cannon Street there are about 4 an hour going down the Deptford line. Only 19mins to Charlton. Subject to the usual screw up of course.

Wow. Glad I've finished commuting in preparation for going back to uni. Fuck that. Sounded like absolute carnage!

Sillybilly · September 2016

Just call me a clairvoyant. 0800 dartford to Charing Cross delayed at London Bridge as a passenger has taken ill on the train. Guess what? It's rammo and the heating is on full blast. I hope someone actually sues the fuckers.

It's the same service again in two weeks for the Rochdale game.
