    Not working, "service not available"

    Is it for HSE workers or something? Seems odd

    Got word of this on Whatsapp at 8pm last night. It was all over social media. Id say whatever amount of available free slots were long gone shortly after.

    The train......


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,462 ✭✭✭Curb Your Enthusiasm


    The train......

    :D good one. I suppose, I'm simply curious as to why they would give out free tickets with this secret code.

    What was it for I wonder?

    Special code for people with Covid 19 to get to hospital.

    Which will now likely be rescinded and not reissued if its being abused - however, that sounds implausible as they wouldn't tell people with COVID to go via public transport anyway

    It's just to try and get people using public transport, publicity of this is great for and company, they need the numbers to travel.
