4. The Hotspot Description
4.1. The Hotspot is a wireless data service using radio frequency to access the Internet. CrossCountry offers the Hotspot for activities such as the active use of e-mail, instant messaging and browsing the Internet. These services may require Users to have accounts with third party service providers. Some information and material (for example software) is supplied to CrossCountry by third parties and CrossCountry offers no guarantees or contractual promises in relation to that information or material. Please be aware that you cannot use the Hotspot for the following reasons (this list is non-exhaustive):

5. The Hotspot
5.1. Although CrossCountry will endeavor to provide a high standard of Wi-Fi service at all times, due to the nature of the services the User acknowledges:-

5.1.1. that it is technically impossible to provide the Hotspot entirely free of faults and that CrossCountry does not undertake to do so;

5.1.2. that faults may lead to temporary unavailability of the Hotspot; and

6. Use of the Hotspot
6.1. If you hold a valid first class ticket for the train journey you are making you may access the Hotspot free of charge (on services which have wi-fi available) and there is no need to purchase a Hotspot Voucher. Access is gained either through the Hotspot portal directly or by obtaining a printed PIN code voucher from the Senior Conductor on board (for journeys on CrossCountry's 170 train type). You are permitted to access the Hotspot for an unlimited period of time during that train journey, although data restrictions may apply. Printed PIN code vouchers provide 2-hour access and on expiry an additional code can be obtained from a member of CrossCountry's staff (subject to availability).

6.2. If you hold a valid standard class ticket for the train journey you are making, you may purchase a Hotspot Voucher, subject to these Terms and Conditions. At present you can purchase a Hotspot Voucher directly through the Hotspot service pages, or via a printed Hotspot Voucher from CrossCountry's service-at-seat (subject to availability). The pre-sale website (available at the following web page: www.crosscountrytrainswifi.co.uk) allows you to pre-purchase a Hotspot Voucher for your journey at a reduced price in comparison to the equivalent tariff bought on board the train.

6.3. You may purchase a Hotspot Voucher for a specific period of time for use of the Hotspot by you. We offer one type of Hotspot Voucher - elapsed time (where the length of time of access is measured from when you first log-on to the Hotspot and will expire at the end of the allocated time regardless of whether you are browsing the Internet or not).

6.4. Once purchased, Hotspot Vouchers can be used on any service operated by CrossCountry. The Hotspot Vouchers are not train, journey or route specific (though can only be used on CrossCountry trains).

Delay Repay Terms & Conditions

If your journey was delayed by 30 minutes or more, irrespective of the cause, you will be entitled to claim compensation under our Delay Repay scheme and in line with our Passenger Charter. You will receive compensation based on the following guidelines:

Delays of 30-59 minutes

50% of the cost of your single ticket or 50% of the cost of either portion of your return ticket.

Delays of 60-119 minutes

100% of the cost of your single ticket or 100% of the cost of either portion of your return ticket.

Delays of 120+ minutes

If either or both the outward or return legs of your journey are delayed by more than two hours and you have a return ticket, you will be entitled to receive up to 100% of the cost of the return ticket

How to Apply for Delay Repay

Please print and complete a Delay Repay form (PDF) or complete our online Delay Repay form. Please make your claim within 28 days of the date of the delay.

We do not normally accept claims for compensation if trains are delayed or cancelled and you were aware of the delay before you bought your ticket.

In the event that we introduce an emergency timetable, compensation will be based on the emergency timetable.

Season Ticket Delay Repay

In the case of Season tickets, Delay Repay compensation is calculated based on the proportional single ticket price paid for that journey. For example, the daily proportional cost of a seven day ticket is calculated based on an assumption that ten single journeys are made per working week (five return journeys).

The value of a single Season ticket journey is as follows:

• Annual Season ticket: 1/464 x total price
• Quarterly Season ticket: 1/130 x total price
• Monthly Season ticket: 1/40 x total price
• Weekly Season ticket: 1/10 x total price

Individual season ticket compensation calculations may differ, depending on the ticket validity.

Should a period of sustained poor performance be experienced, we will consider compensating Season ticket holders over and above the arrangements outlined. In doing so, we will consult Transport Focus, the independent national rail consumer watchdog.

Your Compensation Checklist

So that we can process your application and get your compensation back to you, please make sure that you let us have:

• Either the original ticket, or in the case of Season tickets a photocopy of the ticket and your photocard, your booking confirmation e-mail, or your unique journey number.
• Your name and the address for our reply.
• Information about your journey, including the date you travelled, where you were travelling from and to, and how long you were delayed.

We normally issue compensation using either Rail Travel Vouchers, PayPal, or BACS.  Please confirm when you submit your claim how you wish your compensation to be paid.

In accordance with your legal rights as a consumer you may be eligible to a different level or method of compensation where CrossCountry is at fault and nothing set out above is intended to limit or exclude your legal rights in these circumstances.  If you believe this applies to your journey, please contact our Customer Relations team 

Many of the stations we serve have automatic ticket gates. These gates are supervised during their hours of operation. If you need to retain your ticket on completion of your journey, instead of using the gates please show your ticket to a member of staff.

Issue of Tickets

Some tickets have limited availability. Although we check availability before quoting the fares, we cannot guarantee the availability of such tickets until you confirm the details of your journey immediately prior to payment. However, we do not charge your credit card until your order has been processed. We take all reasonable measures to ensure that the times and fares quoted on our Booking Service are correct. However, despite our efforts, we cannot guarantee that all of the information on our Booking Service (including times and fares) is correct, as our source data is provided from a third party rail information provider.

When we have confirmed your booking by email to your registered email address, we will fulfil your tickets to you using the fulfilment method you selected when you made your booking. While we endeavour to have tickets delivered in accordance with timescales supplied by our delivery agents, we cannot be responsible for any guaranteed delivery times.

Please check your tickets when you receive them. If you believe that the tickets we have sent you do not meet the information you provided at the time of booking through our Booking Service, please contact us. You must ensure that you are in possession of the tickets booked before you board the train. If you cannot produce a valid ticket for the class of accommodation and service that you are using, you will have to pay the appropriate fare on the train and a penalty fare may also be payable. We, the train operating company and the ticket inspector reserve the right to refuse to accept your ticket to the extent that it is unsatisfactorily displayed or to the extent that we or they have reason to suspect that a fraudulent use of booking confirmation, transfer to a different person, or other abuse or reproductions, copies or counterfeits of any ticket are in circulation.

When London International CIV tickets (for use in connection with a Continental or Eurostar ticket) ("CIV tickets") are purchased, they must be accompanied by a valid international travel ticket which must be presented for inspection on the domestic journey along with the CIV ticket. We will not be responsible for any extra costs charged to you by the train operating company where you are unable to provide evidence of a valid international travel ticket accompanied by the CIV ticket when requested by the train operating company staff.

Getting Your Tickets

We offer a range of methods to get your tickets. The particular options offered for your booking may differ depending on various factors, including ticket type, train operator, method of purchase and whether or not there is sufficient time to reliably post your tickets.

Normal post: We will dispatch tickets by normal post to the address you specify during the delivery process. You should ensure that the address provided is correct.

Next day delivery: We will dispatch tickets by Royal Mail Special Delivery to the address you specify during the delivery process. You should ensure that the address provided is correct.

Collecting tickets at the station: For many bookings we allow you to collect tickets from a range of stations. You must allow sufficient time to collect your tickets before boarding the train. You must have your ticket collection reference, and (unless stated otherwise) the credit/debit card used to make the purchase as identification. You should note any special collection instructions given during the booking process, for example the station opening hours.

If you are unable to collect your tickets (for example due to the ticket machine(s) being out of service) then you should contact the station staff for further assistance. If there are no staff at the station, you should board your booked train, and make yourself known to the on-train staff at the earliest possible opportunity.

Print Your Own (PYO): For some bookings we allow you to print your own ticket ("PYO").

You must ensure that you print the PYO ticket clearly on A4 paper before you travel and carry the PYO ticket with you when you travel. PYO tickets that have not been printed are not valid for travel. PYO tickets presented on the screen of your device are not valid for travel.

PYO tickets denote passenger names and passengers must carry one of the following types of ID (matching the name printed on the tickets) when travelling in order to be valid:

• Credit or Debit card
• National Railcard
• Passport
• Driving Licence

PYO Tickets are non-transferable and you must ensure that no one else is able to obtain and/or print a copy of your ticket.

Some train operating companies apply additional restrictions to the use of PYO tickets - you must note any additional restrictions notified during the booking process.

Mobile tickets: For some bookings we allow you to travel with paperless tickets ("Mobile tickets") delivered to the Mobile Application installed on a mobile phone, tablet or similar device ("Mobile Device"). Mobile tickets are not available on all Mobile Device operating systems.

When booking such tickets via the Website or call centre, you must check that your Mobile Device is compatible with our tickets by following the instructions provided before purchase and that you have an up to date version of the Mobile Application.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you carry your Mobile Device on the relevant journey and that your Mobile Device is charged, functional, displaying the correct date and time and that you are able to display the ticket on your Mobile Device for inspection and scanning when you travel. Mobile tickets must be activated from within the Mobile Application before boarding the train in order to validate the Mobile ticket. The Mobile Device must be capable of running the Mobile Application and clearly presenting the Mobile ticket in a legible manner.

Due to the wide variety of Mobile Devices and networks we are unable to offer technical support or assistance. You may incur data usage charges from your mobile network provider for downloading a ticket. You should check with your network provider as to what charges may apply.

If tickets have been booked for more than one passenger, all passengers should travel together.

The ticket must be stored on your Mobile Device until the date and time of travel and such safekeeping shall be your responsibility. Mobile Tickets are non-transferable.

By purchasing an Mobile Ticket, you agree to cooperate with the train inspector and let him/her clearly view and scan the ticket on your Mobile Device and you acknowledge that you may be requested to hand over your Mobile Device voluntarily for inspection and scanning. If you do not produce your ticket or hand over your Mobile Device upon request by the train inspector, the train inspector shall be entitled to consider that you are travelling without a ticket.

Some train operating companies apply additional restrictions to the use of Mobile Tickets - you must note any additional restrictions notified during the booking process.

etickets: For some bookings we will allow you to use an eticket. Where you select an eticket we will email you your tickets and you will have the option to use the eticket in one or more of the following ways:

1. Open the PDF attachment and show the ticket on your Mobile Device. If you are using this option then you must ensure that your Mobile Device can receive email and display a PDF attachment prior to purchase. It is your responsibility to ensure that you carry your Mobile Device on the relevant journey and that your Mobile Device is charged, functional and that you are able to display the ticket on your Mobile Device for inspection when you travel. You may incur data usage charges from your mobile network provider for downloading a ticket. You should check with your network provider as to what charges may apply. The ticket must be stored on your Mobile Device until the date and time of travel and such safekeeping shall be your responsibility. You agree to cooperate with the train inspector and let him/her clearly view and scan the ticket on your Mobile Device and you acknowledge that you may be requested to hand over your Mobile Device voluntarily for inspection and scanning. If you do not produce your ticket or hand over your Mobile Device upon request by the train inspector, the train inspector shall be entitled to consider that you are travelling without a ticket.
2. Print the eticket. If you are using this option then the terms relating to PYO tickets set out above will apply to your use of the eticket, save that ID is not required for etickets.
3. Download the eticket on the Mobile Application. If you are using this option then the terms relating to Mobile tickets set out above will apply to your use of the eticket.
4. Download the eticket into your Apple Wallet if you're using an Apple Wallet enabled Apple device, and show the ticket on your Apple Wallet enabled Apple device. To do this is simple: whilst you are on your Apple Wallet enabled Apple device you must access and open the email that we send you with your tickets, and click on the live link to Apple Wallet. If you are using this option the terms relating to the first type of eticket listed above ('Open the PDF attachment and show the ticket on your Mobile Device') will apply, except that there is no need to present a PDF ticket for inspection if you have downloaded the eticket into your Apple Wallet; instead you should display the ticket using Apple Wallet.

You must ensure that you present your eticket for inspection and scanning in one of the ways described above.

An eticket can only be used by one customer for one valid journey. It is a criminal offence to amend and/or reproduce an eticket for fraudulent use. Where more than one customer presents the same eticket for travel, both may be deemed invalid for travel. You shall have full liability for any fraudulent use of your eticket. Trainline shall have no liability for any fraudulent use of etickets.

The loyalty scheme operator's terms, conditions and privacy policy will apply to their use of that data.

Use of Location Data

Information about your location or approximate location may be used by our Booking Service. We obtain and use this information in two main ways:

Internet traffic information, such as your IP address: This information is provided automatically as you use our Booking Service and can allow us to infer your approximate location - for example your city or county, and country. We use this information:

for analysis purposes to understand the distribution of our customers;
to tailor messages or advertisements shown on our website - for example if we identify that you are likely to be located in Manchester, we may show you promotions relating to journeys starting in Manchester.
Location information provided by your browser or device: Many web browsers, particularly on mobile phones and tablet devices, are able to accurate report your location, for example using GPS technology. The same is true for apps on mobile phones and tablets. These browsers and devices normally ask your permission before sharing your location with a website or app, and you can usually disable the feature altogether in the device settings. We use this information for features that need to know your location - for example if you select "nearest station" or "next train home" and for other search functionality features.

Security

We take the security of your data very seriously. We employ physical, electronic and administrative security measures to protect the information that we collect about you from access by unauthorised persons and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage. You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible for any unauthorised use, distribution, damage or destruction of personal data, except to the extent we are required to accept such responsibility by the data protection laws.

We will not accept any responsibility for any connectivity issues you may experience.

Please contact your network provider or visit their website if you require assistance configuring a data connection for your Mobile Device.

By registering to become a member of the Panel (a “Member”) you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. For the purpose of these terms and conditions “Panel Activity/Activities” means any market research activity in relation to the Panel and “Membership Account” means an account opened by a Member to take part in the Panel Activities.

1. Acknowledgement and acceptance

By registering as a Member, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with, or do not want to accept these terms and conditions, you must exit any web pages associated with the Panel (“Panel Web Pages”) immediately, stop taking part in any Panel Activities and unsubscribe from your Membership Account. We may make changes to these terms and conditions from time to time. Where we make changes to these terms and conditions, we will email you a link to the updated terms and conditions, and if you continue to retain your Membership Account, use any of the Panel Web Pages and/or take part in the Panel Activities, this will constitute your acceptance of these changes. Every time you wish to use the Panel Web Pages or to take part in any Panel Activities, please check these terms to ensure you understand the terms that apply at that time. These terms were most recently updated on 14th August 2017.

2. Purpose of the Panel

The Panel is made up of our customers and our potential customers who have agreed on a voluntary basis to provide feedback to us. Members may be invited to take part in Panel Activities, depending on the type of research that is taking place. Members may not be invited to take part in every Panel Activity which is carried out. Members may be contacted by email, post or telephone to invite them to take part in Panel Activities. Members may opt out of email, postal and telephone contact by emailing [email protected] confirming that you no longer wish to receive these communications, though this may restrict your participation in the Panel Activities.

By registering to become a Member of the Panel, you recognise that there is no guarantee that Panel Activities will be made available to you. We are under no obligation to provide you with the opportunity to participate in Panel Activities.

Taking part in particular Panel Activities may be subject to separate terms and conditions, which will be notified to you from time to time.

3. Membership of the Panel

To become a Member and to participate in the Panel Activities, you need to register by completing a registration form and opening a Membership Account. The registration form may be available on the XC Trains Limited website or another website hosted by XC Trains Limited, and may be accessed via third party websites or via links in an email/social media message sent to you by us or a third party on our behalf, where you have granted permission to receive these types of communications. The registration form may include any number of questions or may just require your consent to join the Panel. You must be aged 16 years or over to be eligible to open a Membership Account, and Membership is not available to employees of XC (or their families), agents of XC or any third party directly associated with administration of the Panel and/or Panel Activities.

Only one Membership Account is allowed per individual. Where we become aware that a Member has multiple Membership Accounts, we reserve the right to delete any Membership Accounts which are additional to the first Membership Account opened by that Member (“additional Membership Accounts”). Any rewards or prize draw entries accrued in relation to additional Membership Accounts may be forfeited and we may demand reasonable proof of identity in the event of a dispute in relation to a Member’s identity. A unique email address must be used for each Membership Account (for example, this means that multiple family members will not be able to have Membership Accounts using the same shared email address, but each family member may have a separate Membership Account using a unique email address). Each Membership Account may only be accessed by the individual Member assigned to that Membership Account, and may not be accessed by any other individual. You agree to notify us as soon as possible if you become aware of, or suspect, any unauthorised use of your Membership Account or any other breach of security. In the event that your Membership Account is accessed by another individual, we reserve the right, where it is reasonable to do so, to freeze the Membership Account until a resolution has been reached. We reserve the right to reclaim any incentives or prize draw entries earned as a result of access by any unauthorised user, for which the Member will have no recourse against XC.

4. Undertaking regarding information required

You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your access to, or use of, your Membership Account and/or to restrict you from taking part in Panel Activities. This is subject to your right to refuse to take part in any Panel Activity.

5. Rewards for participating

Members may accrue rewards by taking part in Panel Activities. Any reward accrued for taking part in a Panel Activity will be notified to Members using authorised communications. You acknowledge that registering to become a Member and taking part in Panel Activities does not guarantee that you will accrue rewards of any kind. Members will only be entitled to rewards in relation to Panel Activities where they have followed all instructions which have been notified to Members in relation to the particular Panel Activities. In the event that a Member fails to correctly follow any such instructions, XC may reserve the right to refuse to grant an award in relation to the relevant Panel Activities, for which the Member will have no recourse against XC. XC may also ask Members to take part in Panel Activities which will give Members the opportunity to enter into a prize draw. Any prize draws will be governed by separate terms and conditions as made available from time to time.

We may offer monetary rewards to Members for participating in Panel Activities, although we do not give any guarantee that Members will receive monetary awards. It is our understanding that the payment of monetary rewards to Members for taking part in Panel Activities is taxable income. Members are not our employees, and it is the sole responsibility of Members to report and pay all taxes due in respect of any income earned from taking part in Panel Activities to the relevant tax authorities. We will not be responsible for any taxation or related costs resulting from any payments made to Members, and Members will be fully responsible for any such taxation and any related costs.

6. Use of information

By agreeing to join the Panel and participating in the Panel Activities, Members acknowledge that they are participating in market research and agree that XC can use any results of the Panel Activities, including information, ideas, responses and feedback provided by Members, in relation to the development and improvement of XC’s products and services. Any information provided will be used for market research purposes only, and not for sales or marketing. All responses provided by Members will be non-attributable and no individual responses will be identified without obtaining the relevant Member’s explicit prior consent. The Panel will be operated in accordance with the Market Research Society Code of Conduct, details of which are available here: https://www.mrs.org.uk/standards/code_of_conduct.

Personal data and any information provided during the Panel Activities will be processed in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. We may, on occasion, pass Member details including Personal Data (as defined by the Data Protection Act 1998) onto selected third parties who have been instructed to carry out research on our behalf. Any Personal Data transferred this way will be treated securely and in confidence at all times and will be used for market research purposes only. By agreeing to join the Panel and taking part in the Panel Activities, Members give permission for their Personal Data to be shared with third parties as set out in these terms and conditions.

Your Personal Data will be used in accordance with our Privacy Policy which is available to view at https://www.crosscountrytrains.co.uk/privacy-policy.

7. Termination

Membership will continue unless Members ask to retire/unsubscribe from the Panel. Members can unsubscribe at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any e-mail received from us, or by emailing us at [email protected] and confirming the unsubscribe request. We will honour any awards accrued by you up until the date you unsubscribe from the Panel. We will process any request to unsubscribe within 28 days of receipt, and you may receive communications via email, post or telephone from us until your request has been processed, unless you have opted out of these communications in accordance with condition 2 above.

8. Our Liability

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors and for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our failure to comply or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen.
