    They are going to get one angry phonecall in the morning. Was looking to book train tickets for Sunday. Deal was 40 euro return before 12 o clock tonight and 60 euro after that deadline. Trying all the time from 10.30 to 12. ****ing website decided to start ****ing up. I swear to god Im going to go mad on the phone in the morning. What a disgrace. No way am I paying extra money when I shouldnt have to..

    That sounds bad alright but if someone was on the phone to me going mad first thing in the morning I'd go out of my way to be unhelpful. Use your brain. Be calm and polite and explain the situation. Its not the Guy on the end of the phones fault.

    Save yourself a call and mention it on their facebook page.

    Its kinda sickening when its not my own fault like. It is a joke if I have to pay more. To be honest, whatever I say I dont think they will care one bit.

    You are not paying more. You are paying the normal price. These things happen with the internet.

    maybe it was because lots of other people were trying also to take advantage of whatever deal this is, and resources were not available to satisfy everyone.

    Is there a bus alternative which would save you even more?

    Rail is not always the best option for people.

    I was going to suggest same. May not be as nice, but is nearly always cheaper and almost as quick.

    Its worse that you filmed and watched for half an hour and then started a thread on here about it. Its a case of Foggy over reacting again.
    So you as well as the two CIE employees involved in this incident would consider a passenger fondling his crotch for half an hour in full view of other passengers acceptable?

    The ulsterbus inspector I reported the incident to said if it was one of their buses or their driver the guy would have been taken off the bus immediately once the allegation was made or incident reported and especially if there was a video of the behaviour.

    I have young nieces who get bus Eireann buses to and from school and to or from places like Liffey valley etc and I don't want cnuts like him having a **** on the bus while watching them!

    The worst part is that a bus driver and inspector did absolutely nothing because they just couldn't be arsed. And I didn't watch for half an hour as you seem to think but could see in my peripheral vision that the pervert was at it the whole time and I was fuming deciding whether to batter the guy and risk arrest myself or get the 30seconds of video I got and report the pervert when we got to the airport. Just as well I didn't assault the pervert as the driver would have taken his side judging from his lack of interest when told what was happening on his bus, he didn't want to know anything at all about it and told me to go to the bus in front and tell the inspector who was there.

    you are exagerating again foggy. Stop trying to make something out of nothing. I seriously cant believe you actually posted the video on here :).

    The Dublin-Cork and Dublin-Belfast trains have no sockets at your seat, on all other routes you will be on one of the newer 22000 trains which all have sockets at every seat!
