    Just saw on their Facebook profile that they have applied for approx 5% rise on prepaid tickets and expect them to take effect in February.

    I would get buying those rambler's and travel 90's right now if you use the bus still, although some of my colleagues in work says that the travel 90's have suddenly vanished from almost all retailers

    Their profile on Twitter said that all of their prepaid tickets, including T90's and ramblers will go onto the leap card later in the year.

    They have also said that currently their prepaid tickets are now being sold in most DB Tickets Agents.

    Do snap them up quickly if you can!

    Plenty of people around here were screaming for people to stock up on Travel 90s. Either a lot of people heeded the advice, or DB cottoned on :)

    Am guessing that the combined tickets for bus and luas will be going up then as well. :mad:

    if the travel 90s arent available from a shop near you, you can still get them direct from Dublin bus posted to you for free via Ticketmaster

    No booking/ creditcard fee nor postage charge! (at least not when I used it last year)

    I don't use the bus enough for them to be worthwhile anymore, just use the leap but a few colleagues of mine pointed it out so I thought I'd make ye all aware ;)

    Where did you see this? I can't find it. Any chance of a screen shot or link.
