(07 Jan 2015, 7:34 pm)aureolin Try paying £4.70 for a single from Chester le Street to Sunderland!
It's silly Go North East charge 90p to go from Fifth Avenue (Ashington) to Ashington (Bus Station). When it costs 90p to go from Ashington to North Shields Ferry and for S1 single ticket...
Arriva charge 60p (£1.10 return) for my journey... but couldn't pay that because the f**king bus drove straight past.
(07 Jan 2015, 7:36 pm)MarcTheA4 Yes. A 42 minute journey during the middle of the day.
I can travel on the longest route GNE have (except the TTX) end to end - 90 pence.
Absolutely fantastic value, imo.

I can't complain to them about the bus being late (over 25 minutes) for no reason this morning because their website is down

(07 Jan 2015, 7:43 pm)MarcTheA4 That's the whole point of the Get Around 90p system, though.
90 pence for every journey, with Go North East. 60 pence if it's with Arriva. Paying an extra 30 pence because Arriva's service didn't stop...you've hardly drained your life savings!!

(07 Jan 2015, 7:44 pm)Dan On the same level, would you argue that it's silly Arriva North East charge "Teen Card" holders £1.00 to go from Haymarket Bus Station to St. Mary's Place, yet they also charge £1.00 to go from Haymarket Bus Station to Berwick-upon-Tweed?I think Arriva say that if you use your Teen Card for a journey that would cost less than £1 if you got a half fare, they give it to you for that. Last summer, for example, I was visiting some friends in Bedlington and to get from one end to the other only cost 80p for a half single so I got it for that when I presented my card.
In Tyne & Wear, bus operators would charge 60p(?) for Under 16s to travel on their buses. £1.10 for a day ticket.
