I bought the railcard, but cant find it anywhere in my account, does anyone have experience with trip.com
7th Feb
It's not the best displayed - makes it a pain having to find your Railcard (I got one before this deal)

On the app at least, you can click on Trains from the home page, then My Railcards

Or you can go via your past purchases

My Trips, All Bookings, scroll to Railcard, then View My Railcard

uk.trip.com/cus…GBP need to apply code here and activate (edited)
7th Feb
Looks like you can't access your railcard on this app without internet, which seems like a problem on various trainstations
7th Feb
Take a screen shot
7th Feb
After the rush hour, most trains run almost empty.
Instead of useless schemes, they should encourage people to travel off peak to boost usage and health issues
7th Feb
Yeah. I had a 16-18 railcard. Then an 18-25 card. Then a 25-30 card. Now a network railcard. Why in god’s name don’t they just… reduce their fares
7th Feb
Only annoying thing with this is you need to purchase train tickets for it to activate (their tickets are generally more expensive than trainline...)
9th Feb
Do you really? I just purchased it and it shows in the app just fine, didn't get any train ticket myself. I already had an account though. Maybe I did buy something in the past and that counts? (edited)
7th Feb
It's a busy app, so a bit of practice needed to be ready to find the Railcard when the ticket inspector is approaching!

They may not accept a screen-shot (which is an easier option). Not sure if the QR code is checked, but the National Rail logo color changes on the electronic Railcard - it will not change on the screen-shot.
7th Feb
Never had a problem using a screenshot, done it frequently. You can't always rely on WiFi signal, so screenshot is a safe bet.
8th Feb
Can senior railcard be connect with your Oyster card for TFL?
8th Feb
Think it has to be done at an Underground station when I did it for my mum.
7th Feb
No 3 year deals for two together railcards or 26-30 years. Nice to see this Tory government screwing over decent hard working people! They could easily subsidise all rail tickets if they wanted to....so everybody could benefit from cheaper prices!
7th Feb
They could, but we'd all be paying for it through our taxes.
There's no free money tree to pay for everything on everyone's wishlist.
8th Feb
Rail travel seems like a luxury to me, I live in the Midlands and travelling to London is just cheaper driving there...
8th Feb
You're not wrong there. Especially if you're a family of 4.
7th Feb
Anyway to add this railcard to trainline or railcard app? The Trip.com app is awful to use
7th Feb
You don’t need to. A railcard is a railcard.
7th Feb
Purchased and opened mine without having to buy a train ticket.
8th Feb
Same (Network Railcard)
7th Feb
Just a warning. Have to use the app and has to have a ticket purchased through trip to activate
10th Feb
Same here. I bought a ticket £17.40 but cant see any discount applied, meant to be 1/3? Any advice please?
7th Feb
Can you 'stack' on the end of a currently valid railcard? If that makes sense (edited)
8th Feb
No, it starts from the day your purchase it.
I've bought 20£ Railcards in the past with like 1 or 2 months left on my current Railcard just in case there was no offers at the time of renewal
7th Feb
I am trying to do this on the website and it's not accepting any photo of mine. I even tried to click a couple with my phone and even those failed to upload. Is anyone else having the same issue?
7th Feb
Brave same problem. Chrome all ok
7th Feb
Can I use this card with trainline ticket?
7th Feb
Yes
8th Feb
Disabled people yet again being excluded.
12th Feb
Anyone got a trick to have reduction on tube in London for classic adults with a railway card?

I know it's possible below 30 and after 60, I'm wondering in between
13th Feb
Could you buy an add on travelcard to your norml train ticket using your railcard. So you get a 3rd off.
7th Feb
Does this offer apply to all train companies across the UK?
7th Feb
Just not in London where oyster card is.
7th Feb
Just bought one yesterday from trip.com. Oops. Anyway I can cancel and reapply. (edited)
7th Feb
Downloaded the app but i"ve got the American version ,hotels trains all outside Europe but there only appears to be one Trip app ? Maybe i can buy it on my PC then sign in some how to get it on my phone ...
8th Feb
Might just be a setting in the app to change your language/location/country?
7th Feb
What an awful app. So many pop ups with 'deals' and it sends you round in circles. Good deal for the Railcards... but I'm still trying to work out how to use the Railcard via the trainline.com app or any other site at all?
7th Feb
Just show it to a ticket inspector when requested?
8th Feb
How does the family work can husband and wife both have the app with the card on
8th Feb
Technically definitely not and practically the railcard has a photo embedded so the inspector would know.

That said, as I’ve mentioned elsewhere on this thread, in my experience on Southeastern they don’t check the card so you could gamble and probably getaway with it. Personally I’d rather pay the £19 through this offer for peace of mind.
8th Feb
I have converted Tesco clubcard vouchers ready to purchase a railcard, I assume I cannot use these with this offer?
8th Feb
No, these can only be redeemed on the official Railcard website.
8th Feb
8th Feb
No good always on strike when I want to use!!!!
8th Feb
Their Railcard can only be viewed in the Trip app, and it looks slightly different to my previous year's card in the official Railcard app. How do we know it's legit until we get asked from a ticket inspector?
8th Feb
Because you would be frankly mad to issue counterfeit rail cards because the penalties are much stricter than other forms of fraud. Hence why you see people in the courts getting large fines just for not buying one ticket.
8th Feb
Says invalid promo code
8th Feb
Can't get the bloody thing to accept a photo
8th Feb
Change your browser
8th Feb
Only digital. I wanted plastic card
8th Feb
Fed up trying to get it to accept a photo. Keep getting 'upload failed'
8th Feb
the only country in europe where i using trains as less as i can... its just not right priced..i better pollute country,who cares
9th Feb
The app sucks, you can import your rail card via a screen shot to Google or Samsung wallet.
9th Feb
Is this "strictly" for new customers. I had one two years ago .
PS.always used screenshot. Only ever got asked once to open app.
9th Feb
Is there anyway to buy a railcard with a delayed start date? No train travel planned until late April
10th Feb
Perfect! Was about to book my train from NW to London so the money I’ve saved it’s paid for this already🙌🏻
10th Feb
What an absolute disaster of a website. I especially love the six pictures that describe how to download the app and buy the railcard, rather than just letting me buy the railcard on the website. Jeez.
11th Feb
So you buy the card and then what? How do you purchase the railcard after
11th Feb
Quick question.
What age is considered senior to qualify for the Senior Railcard?
11th Feb
60+
12th Feb
Thanks OP just got a 3 year senior for £46.20 I can’t usually get 3 years with a discount
