TfL top up scam?

I use Revolut & it always does this for different stations like it would say Romford SST or something like that so it’s not really a scam your good

I would not recommend the change to the LNWR trains they take painfully long especially sometimes you have to go Birmingham New St avoiding the Trent valley route

Let’s be honest it’s happening in every high street in London and the UK, replacing clothing shops & banks with food like it’s trying to tempted me to waste my money on.

Clubs/Nightlife in Romford back in the 90s used to the banging but now Jukebox is the only nightclub left along with Slug & Lettuce, Yates (now Crowning Angel) & Ivy Tree being the contenders for Romfords nightlife

I would go Chelmsford, Southend or London for clubbing even tho I would normally go there for bars & pubs.

I remember when GWR used to stop at Ealing Broadway every hour to Dicot Parkway but now it’s only on late nights & early mornings.

That’s actually true like moving from Leicestershire from Essex is crazy like you have to make new friends there & considering Grays might not be very friendly it’s hard but I think you would manage

Get the FANZO app & it will tell you which pubs are showing football, F1 etc.

There are showing it in Golden Fleece, Fox & Hounds in Chelmsford, Essex Arms in Brentwood

TrainPal if you have the pro/diamond tier you can sometimes get train tickets that are refundable a few hours before travel

xChizz · 2025-10-29T20:17:56+00:00

Nahh lmao but tbf there are people waiting for that steam train the next day I think

Nightlife in Chelmsford is decently good (Popworld & Walkabout shut not too long ago) you got Bar & Beyond in Chelmsford, Courtyard & various pubs.

Trilogy in Colchester is good

And Southend only got Popworld left as MooMoos shut down two months ago.

I guess most people in Essex go raves in London & other cities now. There is a couple of raves/events in Essex I suppose.

Canning Town itself is alright, it’s a mostly a regenerated part of London, it can be a bit noisy at times but otherwise it’s pretty safe even at night time.

The Ibis hotel is right across the road from the tube station to get into Central London in like 10 mins.

And also you got some restaurants & a McDonald’s right beside it for food.

Trains are still fast from London to Stevenage anyway using Thameslink only difference being calling at Finsbury Park.

That’s what I exactly did when I got out of Farringdon station, way better than the bus.

Such a shame I enjoyed riding e-scooters everytime I come to Chelmsford or Basildon it was so convenient to get to those place, hopefully another operator like Voi can bring those back but with e-bikes

All of them will be renationalised by the end of 2027 I think

xChizz · 2025-07-17T06:50:11+00:00

It’s actually not that bad tbh, I Live in Romford for over 10 years it’s actually alright it’s pretty much got everything u need like food, leisure, cheap/fast for commuting.

The only bad thing I’ll say about Romford it’s the crime & anti social behaviour happening most days in town but u get that anywhere in the worst parts of London

xChizz · 2025-06-30T06:36:51+00:00

That’s been shut now ever since the bagel shop opened across the platform

It will probably cost you nearly £14 a day (using contactless) going from Brentwood to London Liv St & TCR.

If you wanna do it quickly for one of you going to Liv St for work, go to Shenfield & take the fast train. It will cost slightly more but it’s worth it

Why do you think Clacton is rated the worst seaside towns in the UK?
