I have only ever been asked once (East Coast) to show my family and friends card and when I asked one guard if they needed to see it (South West Trains), the reply was 'yeah, if you have it with you'.
The inspector just gave a look of puzzlement, when I showed him the Tyne Tees Day Ranger a few weeks back, as though he had never seen one before in his life.
Received that look quite a lot in the four days, and that's from a ticket I assumed would be fairly popular.
I mean, I didn't help by having my Nexus CAT ticket purchased on the first bus I got on to Park Lane followed by my return and then the Rover on top of that...
By the end of it, I got bored of them looking so confused and just started showing them the Rover - not bothering with the return or Nexus CAT... They didn't know the boundary, so it was all good.
