If You Hear a Train Going to Exeter


 

If you hear a train going to Exeter

I recommend speaking to station staff at East Croydon

The fleet team will also be made aware

The train was delayed on its inward journey due to an engine fault

If you do wish to raise your experience further

We would suggest that you contact our Customer Care Team by visiting

Feel free to contact our Customer Relations team

Please claim delay repay compensation here

Sorry we let you down

We understand and respect your feelings and point of view

We have had major disruptions

Some services are extremely busy as people are trying to get home

Please allow extra time for your journey where possible

Staff on the platforms will be keeping an eye on everyone

Due to vandalism we are experiencing minor delays

Customers may experience an additional 12 minute wait

This is due to a fallen tree

I can pass this onto the team to investigate why this keeps happening

I'm sorry I couldn't help further

Please come back to us when the timetables have been released

Do you need travel assistance at all?

Can you kindly send a DM with the booking ref

(if you are happy to share this information)

I'm sorry you've spent unnecessary time on the phone

I hope you get it back

Nothing as yet has been logged as found

This is due to an object being caught on the overhead wires

And time taken also to get through 3 way temporary traffic lights

Which direction are you heading in?

Has the bus arrived?

Have you managed to catch a service?

Which services are you referring to please

What service are you referring to please

Which one are you travelling on please

Clearly there's an issue with the devices you have the tickets stored on

The 8:30 service was unfortunately cancelled due to the service being overcrowded

Sorry for the discomfort this evening

Due to low rail adhesion

There's no maximum restriction on numbers standing

This is actually a shared lounge

Due to the weather which caused the train crew to be delayed for this service

Are you still unable to connect?

Ah, a misbehaving toilet

Sorry that you saw this today
