App enhancements and performance updates.

User reviews

Existing selected rail card not applied

Since the app was updated it is no longer applying my railcard to the ticket prices. It shows that the card is selected but does not apply it. I cannot remove the card selection. I can add and remove other railcards but not the one that was selected before the app update. Please fix!

Add to apple wallet stopped working

Great app until recently when add to wallet started opening google and won’t save!

Needs work

The app is about useable, could be much slicker. Here’s an annoying one: if I use up my 8 passes of a flexi ticket before the end date (which I think is the most likely case), and I’ve now bought a new flexi, the old ‘expired’ one hangs around at the top of the ‘active’ tickets list until the end date. This is the path to get to your actual active ticket so it’s just annoying to have this useless clutter in the way pushing my active ticket down off the bottom of the screen. I’ve got 11 days now of having to scroll past an old ticket every time I need to get through a barrier. Should be an easy fix to just move it to the expired list, please? It even says ‘expired’ on it.

Will not activate key ticket - could get you unfairly fined

Crucial flaw that means you could get fined unfairly. It just goes straight past the load and view page on the key ticket. An app is the only way you can activate a ticket as the station green access light is not accurate. Edit: Of course, I had already contacted Thameslink before writing this (with difficulty because video is needed to show the error and that wasn’t allowed). They did nothing. A few weeks later, it did eventually fix itself but no confirmation bug has been addressed.

Response from developer

Sorry you’ve had trouble activating your ticket this shouldn’t happen. We’d like to investigate and fix this quickly. Please contact https://www.thameslinkrailway.com/help-and-support/contact-us with your device model, OS version, app version, a screenshot/screen recording, and the last 4 digits of your smartcard number. - Thameslink Digital Team
