Travelling for work

Departure boards

Thank you for travelling with Southern on your daily commute

We have the following special features and offers that may help you:

Delay Repay

This is a simple system to enable you to claim compensation if your journey is delayed by 30 minutes or more owing to a problem with Southern trains.

You can scan your season ticket once and apply online anytime a 30 minute or longer delay happens (which won’t be often as only two out of every thousand trains were half an hour or more late last year).

Alternatively you can download a claim form and claim by post enclosing a copy of your ticket.

Please check full details here.

Journey Alerts

You can request free email Journey Alerts so that any service disruption is reported to you in good time.

This means you can avoid down time for instance in the evening you might stay at the office a bit longer and get some work done until the problem is resolved.

Please check full details here.

MyTimes^®

MyTimes^® is a neat way to print just the trains and stations you need for your journey. It also means we can cut down on print runs for pocket timetables reducing the amount of paper we consume.

Special season ticket prices

Southern offer special season ticket prices from a number of stations. Usually these fares are available to passengers who buy a ticket to London Victoria instead of London Terminals.

For some journeys tickets are available for use on Southern trains only and these tickets are offered more cheaply than tickets valid on every train operator.

Examples:
