Little Thameslink tip for you Daniel, the rear First Class compartment is ALWAYS declassified, so you can travel in "First Class" with a table and socket with a standard class ticket.
This is great but please can you tell me if I can claim the wages I will lose because of the strike? If I don't go to work I am not paid. I am also going to a conference in Birmingham and will return on 25th June. If the train is not running can I claim a taxi fare to London? Am I able to make a claim under the Consumer Rights Act? Thank you
Apply in writing? This is an absolute mess of a system. There should be a single centralised system that refunds you automatically for delays and cancellations. Waiting 14 days for a refund? Money can be transmitted at the speed of light. Why should I effectively give these bastards a free 14 day loan?
