Since announcing ‘one-click’ compensation in October 2018, the Government has introduced a requirement for new franchises to introduce simple one-click automated claims systems, available via smartphones and smartcard registration, to make it easier for passengers to claim compensation when they have suffered delays. Automated claims processing benefits a broad spectrum of rail passengers whereas automatic compensation schemes only benefit passengers with specific ticket types.</p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 13/05/2019 12:46:31 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones
