Disgusting behaviour towards me today by 3 staff who obviously had nothing better to do but to pick on me over seeing my Carer off on his train, which I've done many times before. They started on me only once I was on my own of course and I was the only person in the station! The threatening behaviour was instigated by a passive aggressive male, who ordered his colleague not to let me through the exit barrier. I was told I had committed a 'criminal offense' having entered the station without a ticket.

The next train wouldn’t be arriving for another...

A guy called Paul who definitely had a badge on saying "customer service" but really didn't understand the concept of it, spectacularly unhelpful, the kind of unhelpful that takes honing and practice, you can't just achieve that level of unhelpfulness with simple incompetence, he had it down to an art form, condescending to the point of bordering on outright rude from the start before I'd even began to explain the situation, really unpleasant air of smug superiority combined with a whole bag of chips, large cod, battered sausage and curry sauce on his shoulder. I struggle to envision him sat opposite someone at a job interview and them thinking "yep, this is the guy we want representing us"..... I can only assume he has photographs of somebody quite important there in a...
