Ratings and reviews

I had an issue booking via the TrainPal app. After changing my search to 1 person with a railcard, the app reverted to 2 adults with a railcard without it being obvious. In a rush, I checked out as the price looked normal, but the tickets were wrong and I had to request a refund. Key details like passenger count are not clearly visible, and low contrast colours make this worse for accessibility. Clearer display would help prevent errors.

Good for buying train tickets. So far (used it for three journey purchases) it has been easy to find and buy tickets. Personally I'm not bothered about spinning wheels and other gimmicks that get in the way a bit. But as long as I can ignore them and just get a good deal, or even help me navigate through all the complicated pricing, on train journeys, I'll be happy.

Great train app. I've used many and I find this one really clear with the best prices showing. Some apps show just regular prices, even though you know they are cheaper if they call at certain stations on the route, and even enter the appropriate station as a via option. This app shows cheapest prices. I've not used the offers as I'm usually in a rush to book a ticket. But I'm just happy to find an app that shows the best prices and is easy and quick to use.
