Think it was when COVID hit, Arriva stopped issuing tickets for concession pass holders around that time as well.
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Unber43 - 27 Mar 2023
Do they not issue tickets for them when you've got to pay the 50p (which should be a £1 these days)
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - wibblejunior - 27 Mar 2023
I do get a paper ticket when I get the 50 into CLS in the morning, but not after that.

(27 Mar 2023, 6:41 pm)Unber43 Do they not issue tickets for them when you've got to pay the 50p (which should be a £1 these days)Yes, tickets are issued for the pre 0930 fares for pass holders (price varies by local authority).
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Unber43 - 27 Mar 2023
What are the different prices for, County Durham, Tyne & Wear, Teesside & Northumberland
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - F114TML - 28 Mar 2023
(27 Mar 2023, 9:38 pm)Unber43 What are the different prices for, County Durham, Tyne & Wear, Teesside & NorthumberlandNot sure about teesside and Northumberland, but in Durham you pay 50p before 9.30, and in Tyne and Wear the pass cannot be used at all (ie you have to pay full fare), unless you have a hospital appointment and proof. This is why in T&W, the 9.30 bus is always rammed with pensioners (and probably very late as a result).

Its also why the workers traveling in Tyne and Wear can get a seat when they are traveling to work to pay taxes to pay for the concessionary bus passes

I paid for my pass with 53 years of taxes, thank you very much
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Bazza - 28 Mar 2023
Northumberland disabled passes valid all day. Northumberland Pensioner passes valid from 9am. Prior to that full adult fare. All other ENCT passes valid from 930am. Therefore if you have a T&W or Durham pass and you are getting on in Northumberland at 915am you will be charged whereas the Northumberland pass holder who got on in front of you will have gotten on for free. Quite a few pass holders fall foul of this

I often find a few getting caught out pre 0930 when people tend to go on day trips / holidays owing to the variations across the country, also only valid in your country, when I was in Scotland last year, I was in the queue to board a bus behind someone attempting to use their Welsh concession pass and was not impressed when they got told no, claimed she was being prejudice/racist for not accepting it.
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Unber43 - 28 Mar 2023
I thought u could use them all over the United Kingdom, well atleast GB.

(28 Mar 2023, 2:57 pm)Unber43 I thought u could use them all over the United Kingdom, well atleast GB.You can after 9.30am
Before 9.30 you pay the appropriate price for the county you reside in
