View submission: Merseyrail physical ticket scandalous
I sometimes get the train from Edge Hill and then onto the Wirral early in the morning. It's a very mild inconvenience. The hours the ticket kiosk is open must change everyday. Sometimes it's open or it's closed with no sign of life. So you can't buy a physical ticket either because the ticket machine doesn't work.
So you have to buy a ticket for Edge Hill to Lime Street on your phone and then when you're off go down and pay more what you're ticket should cost at the Merseyrail Lime Street ticket kiosk. If you're running late you're buggered.
The technology exists to tap on and off. Has done for years. It's not as if they'd be going into unchartered territory.
There's nothing here!
