Cheers... I hate that lot even more than I hate Trevor Kettle.
Just to point out, yet again, Southeastern have no control over signalling, so dont blame them, blame network rail!
So if you bought a new telly and it went wrong would you be happy if Dixons said don't blame us, blame the company that supplied the electrical components? Of course not.
As a punter your contract is with the service provider - southeastern. It's up to them to make sure their own "suppliers" do the business, so I think any criticism of them is entirely justified.

It was also pointed out on here, Southeastern have the capability to be better prepared for when things like this happen, but choose not to and save their money. Yet each fare hike from them is in the name of improvements that never materialise.
Also worth noting that the parent company that owns Southeastern saw it's profits rise by a 3rd last year.

not true - if you lose your electricity it's down to English Power Networks to fix, phones Openreach etc
PS Train operators are happy to deflect blame for such issues, but are also happy to take 100% of the (overpriced) ticket too. Scumbags. Every single person involved with Southern, SouthEastern and SWT, to me, are scumbags.

And you are a complete twat! ( which is the nicest thing I can say on here).

Nice. Ill let my charlton supporting uncle who drives the trains know that he is a scumbag even though he has no control over ticket prices whatsoever.
No, Kev. It wasn't meant particularly seriously, but my experience Southern / SWT employees is pretty extensive. And it's not it about prices - "this train is canceled due to a shortage of drivers" is a regular excuse.

What's not true about it?
If you pay, say, British Gas for your gas and electricity then that's who you phone if there is a problem as they are your supplier. Of course someone else may end up fixing the problem, but the onus is on British Gas to get it fixed as that's who you are paying for the service.
Ill be honest, I cant stand them neither. I find there staff at charing cross extremely rude. I hate having to pay £170 quid a month for such chuff service. If they are that short on drivers ill happily go for an interview with them to become a driver. Decent job offering decent wonga.

What a shit blog/FB thing that is. The muppet has no humour and no idea how to take a photo, not sure why it is highlighted on here?!
My experience of Southeastern; 0646 Petts Wood to Charing Cross leaves Petts Wood at 0646 1632 Charing Cross to Petts Wood Leaves at 1632. Every day the same
More problems this morning. Over running engineering works carried out during the night have caused delays to the first trains in the morning. Trains out of Faversham still haven't been given the all clear that the engineering works have finished.

To be fair, I only use SE Trains about 4/5 times a month.
In the past two years, I've experienced one late train leaving (by 4 minutes) and not once had a train late arriving. This is to and from various stations across Kent.

Just as the 'bad' weather is about to hit as well.
