Registration

Step one of the registration process requires you to enter an email address and password - you will use these to log into your account.

If you have registered with JourneyCheck with another train operator you need to register again.

Email Address

You will need to supply a valid email address as it needs to be verified. Also, email alerts are sent to this email address.

Mobile Number

If you want to receive text alerts you will need to enter a mobile number.

Apple iPhone

Unfortunately, the Apple iPhone is currently unable to display text alerts sent from a named gateway (e.g. FSR-Alerts). Hopefully there will be a new operating system for the phone soon. Until then, please subscribe for email alerts if an email service is available on your phone.

JourneyCheck Alerts via SMS and email

Welcome to the National Express East Anglia JourneyCheck Alerts service.

This service offers the ability to register for the automatic provision of train service disruption information via SMS and email. The information supplied comes directly from staff in the National Express East Anglia Service Delivery Centre at East Anglia House in London.

This service is being provided to you through National Express and was developed by Nexus Alpha Limited. This service is subject to the following terms and conditions. You are legally bound by them even if you choose not to read them:

Warranties, Indemnities and Limitation of Liability

Although National Express will take considerable effort to ensure that the service we provide to you is of good quality, there may be difficulties that can affect the service. Neither National Express or Nexus Alpha Limited provide any warranty or accept any liability whatsoever for any loss or damage from: defects that may exist to the service and the website, omissions or errors, reliance on the service resulting from delays, service interruptions, inaccurate alerts, the customer's inability or failure to use the service, or suspension or withdrawal of any part of the service. National Express accepts no liability or responsibility for technical inaccuracies, technical difficulties, loss of data, service settings, mis-delivery or storage failure of data, human error or other interruptions to the service. National Express expressly exclude liability for loss, whether direct, indirect or consequential. Liability is hereby disclaimed to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The very nature of train service disruption information means that it can take time for network and service problems to be reported back to the Service Delivery Centre, who then enter the information into the JourneyCheck Alerts system. Also, the nature of service disruption means that on occasion it can change quite rapidly. Disruption information is by nature an imprecise process, as the future is predicted from the present position:

• Incidents can take longer to resolve than initially expected
• delays can become more severe
• cancelled services may be reinstated

The JourneyCheck Alerts service provides an "as is" snapshot of the reported state of the network in the context of the journey you have defined and at the time you have registered to be alerted.

National Express and Nexus Alpha Limited reserve the right to terminate your subscription to this service at their discretion. The service is provided for the personal use of passengers and potential passengers of the transport system to enquire about journeys, and for no other purpose.

The customer warrants that they are the legitimate owner of a registered mobile number or email address.

The customer shall indemnify National Express and Nexus Alpha Limited (including its affiliates, staff, officers and agents) against any claim by a third party alleging loss and/or damage as a result of the customer's misuse, or inability to use the service.

Use of Service

• There is a maximum number of journeys that can be registered.
• A mobile phone number or email address can only be registered once.
• Travel alerts are received by email or SMS text only
• Note that SMS messages are typically restricted to 160 characters, and therefore will be in abbreviated format and may not list all the problems.
• The SMS service abbreviates station names to the three letter codes used on www.nationalrail.co.uk. A full table of reference on the introduction to this service is on the National Express East Anglia web site, and also on the Nexus Alpha web site.
• This Service is created solely for access from the UK mainland.
• In order to receive the service, the customer must go through the process of registration and answer all questions marked by an asterisk.
• Once the customer has registered for the service, they will continue to receive alerts until they unsubscribe, or the service is terminated according to these terms and conditions.

The JourneyCheck Alert service uses a defined set of rules to determine what message to send when there are a number of different incidents likely to affect your journey:

• Priority is given to cancellations over train delays.
• Cancellations to later trains will take priority for alert over earlier delayed services.
• Where more general problems are reported on a particular route, the message will state that cancellations or delays "may" occur as appropriate.

Cost of Service

This service is being provided by National Express with no intended cost to the end user. The standard cost of sending a text message within the United Kingdom is met by National Express. However, it is possible that your mobile operator may charge you to receive SMS messages. This is very often the case for receiving text messages when you are abroad. We would encourage you to suspend your alerts when you are on holiday. Similarly the subscriber should be aware that whilst the "desktop" delivery of emails is generally free, the delivery of emails to mobile devices can incur charges from your mobile service operator.

Not withstanding, National Express reserve the right to review the pricing policy in the future. Notice will be given in advance to all subscribers should any changes in pricing policy take place, and no charges would be raised without a re-subscription process.

Personal Privacy and Data Protection

We regularly send out details of our special offers and promotions. National Express respect your privacy and will not pass your details to any third party without the customer's prior consent

For details of our Privacy Policy and how we collect and use personal information please see our website (www.nationalexpresseastanglia.com) or write to National Express, Customer Contact Centre, Grosvenor House, 112-114 Prince of Wales Road, Norwich NR1 1NS.

Customer Responsibilities

The customer shall, if choosing to receive alerts via SMS or email respectively, be responsible for providing and maintaining a working mobile phone or a valid and working email address.

The customer agrees to provide true, accurate and complete information about themselves, as requested on the registration page. The customer agrees not to misrepresent their identity or other information. Accurate details, such as phone numbers, email address, postcodes and journey information enables National Express to provide the correct services to our customers.

The customer will not be able to use the service unless they validate their email or SMS numbers by responding to a message sent to each address. This protects the customer from any other user inadvertently (or with intent) entering customer contact details and causing the system to send unwanted alerts.

The customer is responsible for guarding their password and login details. You will be asked to enter a password when logging into your account. The customer is responsible for all account activities that occur from using the password.

The customer shall use the service for personal use, and shall not resell or seek to profit from the information provided by JourneyCheck.

Customers may at no time use another subscriber's password.
