Oh, great! The website to book bicycle spots in regional trains in France is now underbooking... I counted 12 spots in this train (AGC model in region Bretagne) but only 9 can be booked... and reservation via https://www.veloabord.fr is (officially) mandatory! 😤 #CyclingOnRails #SNCFail
Ah bah super, le site de réservation pour mettre #MonVéloDansLeTrain fait de la sous-réservation en plus... J'ai compté 12 places dans ce TER (modèle AGC, région Bretagne) mais seulement 9 places sont réservables sur https://www.veloabord.fr 😤 #SNCFail

J'essaie de faire les choses bien, je prends le train, et j'utilise un Android sans Google sur un smartphone qui a 10 ans. Et bien SNCF-Connect c'est fini pour moi. La dernière version de l'app crash au démarrage ("null pointer dereference").

@12train j'arrive !

"Après vérification, je constate que vous utilisez une version modifiée d'Android et non officielle et qui n'est pas donc pris en charge par l'application, j'en suis navré.

@jon 1 cross-border train sounds like a pretty close approximation, of the trains that SNCF Connect sells at least 😅 #SNCFail

Pontarlier, a fully renovated station that appears to offer a whooping... 3 daily TER connections (per direction) to the regional capital of Dijon (1 of which direct), on top of the 3 aforementioned cross-border train + TGV.

Pristine cobbles on the station square and roofs over the platforms. Meanwhile the roundabout in front of the station is a complete gridlock...

If only SNCF would put as much money in actually running trains as in renovating stations... #SNCFail

@maartje Epic!

"Challenges 🏆" > Your challenge is to spend your 10% discount of 4€ on this far-right-billionaire-owned shop that has the monopoly on all our stations and sells overpriced stuff.

"Entertainment 🎲" > Your entertainment is to give us data by voting for your favorite book from our selection from said shop. Or play a lottery game to win a bicycle that you won't be able to take in our trains because we don't have space for that.

Also SNCF's search for bringing a bicycle on board is totally broken.

1. The number of bicycles must be equal to the number of passengers. 👆
2. If you book a round-trip (e.g. to use a Carte Avantage discount) you shall travel with your bicycle at all times. 👆
3. The routing algorithm proposes an "alternative route" for Paris-Bordeaux with a connection in Dax, but the first train already stops in Bordeaux on the way. 🤯

Be right back putting my bicycle in a TranZBag. #SNCFail #MonVeloDansLeTrain

Yet Another SNCF Chelouterie.

Ce matin je fais une recherche pour réserver un train Paris-Normandie : tous les résultats indiquent "Non réservables".

Après plusieurs tentatives, j'ai trouvé la source : il fallait que je désactive ma carte de réduction Bourgogne Franche-Compté  

#sncf #sncfail

Conditions d'échange de billets de train :

"Billet échangeable (avec ajustement au tarif en vigueur) et remboursable sans frais jusqu’à J-7. A partir de J-6 et jusqu’au départ: 19€ de frais sur TGV et 40% du prix (max 15€) sur Intercités. Dès 30 min avant départ, billet échangeable une seule fois et non remboursable ensuite."

Non mais sérieux, vous avez pas plus compliqué ? #sncfail

4. The Frecciarossa trains operated by Trenitalia aren't shown at all on the Gares & Connections app nor website, which should clearly be illegal.
5. Speaker announcements were made on average once per train, 20 minutes before departure, only in French. Great again for #a11y 🤦‍♂️
6. The small screens in front of each platform worked though.

2/2 #SNCFail
