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.
