Change rules on season tickets to allow weekdays only

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

TOCs like Greater Anglia assume the majority of season ticket holders will travel at weekends and use this to subsidise weekend travel.
Delay replay is also based on this assumption.
We ask that rules for TOCs be changed to allow weekday only to reduce cost to consumers for a service few use.
Delay repay is based on weekend running, but little or no service is available unless by Bus.

Most commuters do not travel at weekends.
