The cretins...

Running Greater Anglia have clearly worked out that making it easy to submit a Delay Repay claim was costing them a shitload of cash.

Because these thieving bastards have now decreed using email to submit claims is no longer allowed.

We now have to either use their f*cking abysmal web-based claim form which is quite possibly the most amateur use of the internet I've ever encountered or fill in a form and post it to them. Back to the Stone age.

I've worked out that as it costs them money each time I post a claim to them that's what I've taken to doing. One claim, one envelope, every time.

There'll be another claim snail mailing it's  way to them  soon.

F*ck 'em.

Within 10...

Minutes of a train breaking down between Chelmsford and Witham the shitheads at Greater Anglia had f*cked us over again and we're going to terminate us at Witham.

Even now we're sitting in the siding just outside Chelmsford where they've just announced we're going back into Chelmsford and are being slung off.

And we still have almost 9 years of this class of incompetence to live with.

Remember...

This?

Another meaningless promise from the arseholes running the least successful railway company in the world.

Well, almost 2 years on from that piece of prize bullshittery, how many of these 'new' trains are in service? None. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

Not f*cking one. Oh there were mysterious sightings of a newly painted Class 321 and the odd image of one was published together with a veritable tide of corporate bollocks. None of it true.

I admit I did actually clap eyes on one at Liverpool Street on a couple of occasions where it was part of a Clacton service. The last time that happened was sometime around January or February.

Since then, nothing. It just disappeared into thin air.

We were confidently assured by the clowns managing this f*cked-up shambles that we'd have at least 10 of these re-treads running by now.

Characteristically they lied to us then to win the franchise and just as typically they're trying to ignore the fact they lied to us.

And they appear to be hoping that we haven't noticed we were lied to by these dishonest bastards to get their grubby mitts on our hard-earned money. Well I've noticed.

Another....

...f*ck you Braintree from the arseholes formerly known as Abellio Greater Anglia.

The bastards, now calling themselves just Greater Anglia were gleefully handing out flyers at Liverpool Street this morning, bragging about how they will be running even more bloody trains to Southend, like those f*ckers don't get enough already, Norwich, Colchester and all points between.

Just about the only poor sods not being promised an improvement were once again the unfortunates who choose to live in Braintree.

We can, therefore, confidently continue to expect m our trains to be cancelled without warning as the first resort come any Notwork Fail or AGA f*ck-up anywhere on this shitty, benighted shambles of a rail company.

Friday evening...

And it's all f*cked again courtesy of the f*cktards at Abellend Greater Anglia and their inability to maintain their bloody trains.

Another of their endlessly bolloxed shitboxes was dragarsing up the line to Shenfield at about 10 miles an hour again tonight leaving total f*cking chaos in it's wake, trains were being delayed by 15, 20 and 25 minutes yet again.

As ever though, it was enough for the dickheads running the line to terminate the Braintree train, not once, but twice. The first time at Chelmsford, and then again at Witham.

The day this bunch of clowns are out on their collective arses later this year can't come nearly soon enough.

If it's Monday...

Then you can guarantee either AbHellio or Notwork Fail and quite frequently, both will find a way to f*ck up your journey into work.

This mornings farce was caused by f*cked up points just outside of Chelmsford, Oh, how I hate that f*cking shithole.

I'd caught the 0726 from Braintree to Liverpool Street as usual this morning, which was a surprise in itself, the bastards cancelled it last week.

Even better, we were on time for a change and didn't even have to wait at Witham for the usual late-running Inter-City train to go through. A red letter day then. I should have known better.

It was only once we'd got to f*cking Chelmsford that it all went to Hell in a Handcart.

All of the arseholes that get on there had done so and had elbowed and barged their way onto the train. And then we just sat there. Not moving. At all.

Eventually the driver tannoyed the bad news, there was points failure. F*ck!

You can probably see where this is going.

I eventually reasoned that with Chelmsford being a busy station, Notwork Fail would get it fixed fairly quickly.

Not a f*cking chance. I thought the clowns at Liverpool Street were cretins, but the f*ckwits at Chelmsford managed to take ineptitude and bone-headed stupidity to a whole new level.

As soon as he found out the points had failed the wanker on the tannoy tells the assembled arseholes that they're going to run all of the trains through the station from (the Northbound) Platform 2.

Cue a stampede of arseholes desperate to get to work across to Plaform 2 which immediately became overcrowded. So, next, the moronic staff immediately block access to it. For everyone.

I just wanted to get back to Witham so I could get picked up to go home and work from there.

No chance, the gormless f*cktards blocking the stairs had their instructions, cretinous and nonsensical though they were; absolutely no-one was getting onto that platform come what may. Tough shit if you want to go anywhere sunshine, we have to get the arseholes on to a train to try and make  room for more arseholes.

It was truly, massively, f*cking mental. I have never, ever, seen the like of it,

These f*ckers are beyond redemption. I can only assume that they ask their job applicants questions with simple common-sense answers and anyone who get's them right is rejected.

Staggering,

Another late...

Bloody late freight train, another bolloxed journey.

This morning's 07:26 has been cancelled again due to another late running f*cking freight train, except according to Greater bloody Anglia it's not actually cancelled, it's merely being "started from Witham".

Is it f*ck, it's f*cking CANCELLED you wankers!

They did try to arrange alternative transport. A single 40 seat bus. Pretty much useless for the majority of the 500 of so people who use this train every day.
