@LeShuttle_Help what's the point in booking a specific train, turning up on time, going through customs on time, the being made to wait for an hour with no explanation or apology from staff on the ground?

And you offer no real compensation for this. No way to treat customers.

@AvantiWestCoast I book through my Blue Light Card and just booked a ticket on 9th April on the 7am Man to Eus. Is there a reason on 15th April there are no fares available that get in until 11am? There are 2 earlies but the go via Bhm And take over 3 hours!

@SW_Help Hello I am confused about Bicycle restrictions on services leaving Waterloo. The timetable seems to suggest I can get on a train going to Portsmouth at 1700 with a bike as long as I get on at Waterloo and go all the way to Portsmouth, is this correct?

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@AvantiWestCoast I've bought a ticket for travel in a couple of days but have lost my physical railcard, can I pay the difference in price to a non-discount ticket?

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@AvantiWestCoast what is your policy on travelling with musical instruments over the usual luggage size? I need to move a cello from London to Manchester and the train is my only way to travel.

Absolute joy listening to @auroraorchestra on @BBCRadio3 tonight giving a rousing rendition of Beethoven's 9th. And bravo to all the singers and soloists for the final movement 🇪🇺

@Voice_of_Steven @seatsixtyone I had a trip that depended on the Vienna Brussels route and they cancelled it with 7 hours notice. I wouldn't trust Nightjet at the moment especially on their old stock routes.

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@unsereOEBB My nightjet NJ40425 has been cancelled from Brussels to Munich, and I cannot make my journey from London to Munich via the Eurostar and Nightjet. What compensation is there for a ruined holiday?

I grew up working class. I’ve been fighting all my life.

As Prime Minister, I’ll fight for you.

14 years of Tory incompetence, no social or affordable housing and a severe lack of mental health support systems has all led to this. Absolutely shameful.

@markloftCD Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼🙏🏼

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@markloftCD I got some eventually at the end of March 😂

@willnorman @TidewayLondon Is the C3 crossing from the embankment to the underpass being upgraded at the same time? So many more people cycling than when it was changed for these works.

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@AvantiWestCoast Hi do you know if Club Avanti qualifying journeys are based on when you book, or when your date of travel is?

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

@SimonCalder All well and good, but what about coming home? How many airports around the world are ready to relax restrictions?

[Ed Hardwick @edhardwick]

Regulation can't come soon enough #pedicab

Here's my #ThamesWater bill for a 3 bed house with no meter over the last 3 years, it's gone up by 25% over the last 2 years and they want to increase it by another 40%??? For something I have no choice over the provider it's an absolute scam and racket.

@DavidRobson84 My student nights were never the same after it went 😭
