LNER (London North Eastern Railway) replaced Virgin Trains East Coast in 2018. Our history dates back to GNER (Great North Eastern Railway).
After postponing our journey on Friday 18 Feb and buying new more expensive tickets for Monday 21 Feb- as at the time LNER website was saying to claim a refund and rebook rather that accept the Friday tickets on Monday- we are now stuck at Kings Cross with no trains moving due to power line problems. I’ve now had to book new tickets for tomorrow as there is no news on today’s travel. Advice from LNER to travel from Euston is not really helpful as we can’t reserve seats on Avanti trains - so no guarantee of a seat or travel. I appreciate that none of it is LNERs fault and your staff are doing a really good job keeping people informed in a friendly manner- so full marks to them. I just hope all the refunds go through without a problem
Useful app

Everyone has their own app these days, but I use this one as I make a journey with them often enough.It's quick & easy to book, & handy to be able to see your tickets straight away, so no faffing with ticket collections, downloading stuff from emails, printing stuff, etc.Would be better if you could look up 2 journeys at the same time, in different 'tabs' or something. For example, I usually book a train from London to up north, but from my local train station I don't book it so I can keep my plans flexible, but it would be handy to see what time the trains are & if I can make a connection. If I put the full journey in from my station to up north, sometimes if just shows the ones with the best connection times, but if you wanna go for a particular time train from London, you have to do a separate journey from your local station to London to check what would get in in time, & then go back to the main journey.
Bike bookings on LNER app
Two wheel passenger
I have recently installed the lner app on my phone and started to use it for booking trains from Edinburgh to London instead of Trainline. All good except the bike reservation feature. You have to choose train and pay for it before you can see if there’s a bike space. It’s much easier in Trainline where you can see the trains that have bike spaces when you’re browsing for a ticket with a clear bike icon. This means I have both systems open when booking and toggle between train line and lner to check if there are bike spaces and there’s always a nerve wracking moment between confirming a ticket and reserving the bike in case someone has dashed in and snaffled one of the 4 precious bike slots. Please change this!! It can’t be that difficult! There are already so many less bike slots on the. Ázuma trains that booking has become much more challenging. In hope
Error message on my account
dianeJeden
There is an error message on the One Click Delay Repay part on my app. It says I need to refresh as the transactions have failed to load. I have done this and also deleted and reinstalled the app but the message is still the same. I have messaged LNER and would like tech support to help but no one seems interested and just keep saying we have not been informed there is a problem on the app. The whole point in me having the app is for convenience and I don’t want to have to manually apply every time I have to ask for a refund. I just want to be able to use the One Click Delay Repay as I have enabled it.
Developer Response
Hi Diane, sorry to hear about this. You should have been listened to when you reported the concern. We *have* been informed there's a problem on the app if you've taken the time to tell us there is! Your expectations of the app are correct, it's there for convenience. I'll pass this on to the team and hopefully they'll be in touch soon.
A smoother, more reliable LNER App is pulling into the station. We've fixed a few issues and made some improvements to keep things running nicely.
