I don't know if anyone else knows, but the price of a Get Around Day ticket increased from £3.50 to £3.65 on Wednesday. Now, I don't recall seeing this advertised anywhere, so how can a bus company sneakily increase prices without telling anyone? Is it allowed?
The single meanwhile is still 90p.

I guess it is allowed, as you can go into a Supermarket for a loaf of bread and it has gone up in price without any warning, so I don't think bus fares are any different.

There has been notices on buses, but mainly in the ones that aren't branded because the branded buses have been showing the bus changes in the notice board, whereas unbranded buses have been advertising that prices were to go up in the notice board

But a bus company does not force you onto their vehicles. Alternatives are car, walk and taxi and in many places other bus companies and/or metro.

GNE East Lancs Loyne sporting an updated version of The Key advertisement
Seen here inside of Chester le Street Depot, I originally thought when passing by on the opposite side of the road it was for the 100 years of Northern but when biking it back home after popping into Chester le Street to take some photos I realised it's a new advert for The Key Card, Overall I think it is way better the current KeyCard Branding, it also seems like GNE have went back to the "Simply Turn Up and Go" slogan also which in my opinion is not a bad idea in my opinion. But slight changed it changed for the KeyCard[/align]
And for those of you who are wondering I was standing in the depot Entrance as you can tell by the zoom, as I know i've been accused of trespassing when in actual fact i've had permission.
(30 Mar 2013, 6:35 pm)aureolin Buzzfare prices are also up. 3+ zone monthly ticket is now in to three figures, priced at £100. The annual 3+ zone ticket is £1 off being a four figure sum, at £999.

Just to think how many bus services are late and such too...
