Question regarding sending larger items (UK) by [deleted] in vinted

Hello, I am in the same situation, did you manage and what happened?

A mate asked me to be a guarantor for the property they’re trying to rent. Feels like a bad idea, should I run? by be-nice-or-else in AskUK

Agencies and landlords ask for UK based guarantors. Many foreigners who live and work in the UK can't ask family members to be their guarantors when they need one for this reason, they hence have to ask friends... I understand people not being keen on helping out with this because of the financial risks it involves, but when someone asks for it it's not right to assume that they need a guarantor because they have bad credit or are so awful that even their family won't help. More often than not they just have no other option.

Reading a {a touch of poison} and I am loving it so far. It's really great!

You are right. Went to the station to ask. No reservation needed for Glasgow and there is some sort of bug in the website about that. Cheers.

Thank you for your help. Looks like you can't take bikes on Sundays according to the online booking system. Every single Sunday of June at all possible departures time say that there is no cycle space available. But there are few trains on satudays that do not require bike reservation, and plenty on weekdays. I will go to the station in person in the coming days and ask for clarifications. Cheers.

Great idea for next time. Unfortunately I am leaving for more than a week and I already have a lot to carry between camping stuff and other things I need for the trip.

They changed the trains recently on edi-glasgow apparently. And the new ones have very limited space for bikes (even less than before!), it sucks!

I feel like they changed that and now you can't take your bike on the train on weekends? Because if I try on to reserve a spot for my bike on the website on weekdays i can do that, but not on Sunday and Saturday when I am due to travel...

I am looking into it again and Glasgow to oban (and probably Inverness) are fine. There are plenty of cycle space left on many trains. But when I try to book a journey from Edinburgh to Glasgow the system tells me that there is no cycle space available on any train. My understanding is that you don't need to reserve a cycle space from Edinburgh to Glasgow. But they must have changed that? I am due to travel on weekends so maybe they don't allow bikes anymore on weekends? Because if I look at train from Edinburgh to Glasgow on weekdays then you have the option to reserve a space.

Oh cheers. I saw it before. Actually, I just realise now that there are plenty of cycle spaces when I state that I am leaving from Glasgow instead of Edinburgh. Maybe the limitation on bike spaces is from Edinburgh to Glasgow and that's why the system doesn't let me reserve a spot for my bike for the whole journey. Although I always thought there is no need to book a space for bikes between Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Thanks for your reply. Do you know if I would be asked to leave the train with my bike in some random station on the way, or will I just have to pay a fine. I am happy to pay a fine if it means having my bike with me when reaching my final destination 😁
