    looked into it further and appears quite a few bus operators are giving some kind of freebie.

    Try this with First and see how much they will give you. Absolutely nothing. They rely on inertia so that they will pay out as little as possible!

    Hi,

    Thanks for this, quick question though, the ticket doesn't say activate, it says use and has today's date on it, is this the same as everyone's ticket?

    Thanks

    Mine says the same. I'm hoping it just means the date it was purchased.

    I just checked, and seems like you can still take advantage of the offer if you don't have an iPhone or Android device. Scroll down the website link above and gives you option for "other phone users".

    Have a try and see how you get on.

    Arriva users seem quite lucky with this offer. I just checked Stagecoach and not a single mention on Stagecoach Northampton, and Stagecoach East are doing some sort of offer, but you have to be at a certain place at a certain day and time to pick up a leaflet with the promotion voucher on it.

    One question though... do you need an internet connection AFTER you activate the ticket for the day?

    I've felt the same way about Arriva for a long time. And since this 'promotion' (to train the drivers about 'glowing' tickets) is not available in my area I still do.
