They charge £1 per booking and an additional £3.50 if you use a credit card

 

No fee applies if you use virgintrains.co.uk or any other rail operator's website. They all use the same ticket database.

 

Just wanted to get that off my chest...

Absolutely.

 

Use the trainline.com to identify the best priced fare - then go direct to the provider to book saving the difference. Cashback websites (Quidco etc) can be used to save more.

 

Not sure this post is in the right forum mind....

Meh, bearing in mind they compare across operators it's a good service and a good website to use. Not to mention the fact that each operator wants you to sign up with them again, sometimes it's just worth the quid not to have to go through that hassle.

 

Plus no one is making you use a credit card, there's no charge for debit cards.
