@GWRHelp stuck at Paddington for 30 mins, then asked to get off the train at Swindon to get train behind us as ours was no longer stopping at Bath Spa, only to find there was no train as it had overtaken us. And the next one was cancelled too! Now in an uber. Worth £108 ticket.

Good afternoon George. I am sorry to hear that. Many train tickets are flexible, allowing customers greater choice. This does mean, however, that some services can become unexpectedly busy. We do all we can to ensure the busiest known services have a greater capacity and we use all available carriages where possible. - Noah

@GWRHelp I have a technical issue; I have tried to contact multiple times for the issue but support staff are not equipped. Your system has stopped sending me emails, but I cannot amend my address. I need to contact somebody on your web team to address this please.

Unfortunately, there was a fault on a train this morning that led to a train being diverted away from Chippenham and Bath to avoid backing up further services behind it. After the train had diverted, the train with the fault was moved on to allow later services to continue to run without further delay, so no stations were 'skipped' by choice, but I can appreciate that this would have been frustrating for you. To raise a formal complaint for investigation, please fill in our complaints form at railhelp.co.uk/gwr/make-a-com…. The customer support team will be in touch as soon as they can - Gordon

@GWRHelp 1. Timetables are fixed obligations Train operators are expected to stop at all stations listed in the timetable for that service. Skipping stops would leave passengers stranded or disrupt planned connections so why now is this common ?

Hi Martin. I’m very sorry to hear about the repeated delays you’ve been experiencing on your journeys to London. I completely understand how frustrating and disruptive this must be, especially when you rely on the train for business travel. We continually review its timetable and service offerings. At present, there is no confirmed date for the reinstatement of a direct Newquay to London service. However, customer demand and feedback like yours play an important role in these decisions, and your comments will be shared with the relevant teams. In the meantime, we are working to improve reliability across the network and minimise disruption wherever possible. We appreciate your patience and understand the impact this has on your travel planning. - Cece

@Newquay_Airport @CornwallCouncil @GWRHelp @ruthpwasb another week on GWR to London. Delayed every week. Any news on the Newquay to London service being reinstated? There is no certainty for business travel to London from Cornwall when there is only the train to rely on.

Why are GWR services on the North Downs line so unreliable? Does anyone actually care? Unreliability has major knock on effects for customers and the economy. Go visit Japan and see how it should be done. @GWRHelp

Hello there. I'm sorry about these issues you are facing this morning. The good service message means most trains across the GWR network are running on time at the moment. Please remember, if you arrive at your destination 15 minutes or more later than planned, you can claim compensation at delayrepay.gwr.com - Matt

@oliver_davis Hi Oliver, thanks for your message. We would not be installing Starlink on our trains as we are trialling different technology used in Formula 1 cars to significantly boost the onboard wifi speeds. More information can be found at bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… - Gordon

@GWRHelp I see you’re running a survey on your WiFi service, which all of us regular commuters struggle with. What’s stopping you installing @Starlink?
