@andrewrowan128: New Metro-North policies…. If you’re buying your train ticket for Monday morning on Sunday night, you won’t see the option in the app. Here’s why.
Used to be good for 60 days until activated. Seems like a step backwards

Hate this. I usually buy my ticket the night before bc I catch the 6am train. Now I have one more thing I gotta do in the am.

The real reason: we're going to implement different rates and don't want you to buy cheaper tickets before fare hikes occur.

My rhetorical question is, why can’t I use the app to purchase the ticket on the train and then activate it? I do it all the time way before the conductors even anywhere near me and it does nothing to cause any kind of problems and it takes no more of the conductors time and across the MTA actually nothing. I can see when somebody had to buy something on the train and the conductor how to do something charging a surcharge, but this is just almost punitive. And you can’t buy it at the night before so you know it’s it’s just makes it less convenient and it makes people unhappy. What do you wanna make everyone unhappy for

I think when I am asking this question, it’s not because I don’t understand how the new system works. I’m asking a rhetorical question of why would they do this?

It’s all about a money grab…..it would be paid for who cares when you use it, it’s nearly impossible to get any refund

This is so stupid. I live in a rural area and don’t have service - so now I need to double check I’m in a place of service before heading to the train station to buy my ticket that day?
