@northernassist excelling themselves again tonight! “Train cancelled due to shortage of staff available to sit in a cupboard and do nothing anyway”. #useless #northernfail @NorthernFail
Well it’s been on the cards for some time, finally @northernassist are losing their franchise for providing such a dire service! Not before time, fingers crossed things can be worked in to improve the service across the board….
Another day, another Northern Fail :-( Delays to service, 2 car services for routes needing at least double that, same old, same old!

Colossal cock up again by @northernassist Luckily the weather is cool and the heating is off. When will @transportgovuk take this franchise away. #northernfail

I've been a #commuterline for many years, but since moving to the north have never had service as appalling as northern trains. I've signed a petition to strip the franchise from #NorthernRail and I'd appreciate if you can too: petition.parliament.uk/petit…

@northernassist So can you please pay for a taxi to Preston as 2 days in a row I can't get into work in time because of your dreadful non service. #Northernfail

@northernassist @northernfailz another day, another cancelled train on the Lostock towards Manchester line #NorthernRail #NorthernFail
Good to see the @MayorofGM getting on @NorthernRailLtd / @NorthernAssist’s case re the truly awful train service they provide. About time they were held to task on this.

I feel the performance of Northern Rail is now so poor that the time has come for an official investigation to establish whether it is breaching its license to operate.

Accidentally brought my train ticket the wrong way round this morning via @thetrainline app and they shaft me with a £10 refund charge when I cancel to buy the right way round #manchester #cheadlehulme #notfair #badcustomerservice #MondayBlues #ripoffbritain

@northernassist Can you please ensure all staff are trained adequately. Member of staff unable to figure out adding plus bus so just had to buy a return train ticket and will have to buy a day ticket on the bus. So I'm having to pay more for travel than I should.

Another freezing cold service from @northernassist 🙄❄️ coupled with 3 x days of strikes next week...happy new year and all that 😡

What a surprise the 3.4% increase in @northernassist fare hasn’t improved service with train delayed. Who doesn’t like a monopoly you are forced to use #RipOff
northernfail retweeted
Well thanks #northernrail put your price up then announce strike action for Monday Wednesday and Friday next week 😡😡😡😡
northernfail retweeted
Northern rail: let's put the price up
Also Northern Rail: let's still run the service late though
#happynewyear

@transportgovuk what are you go by to do to @northernfail @northernassist who strike 3 times in 1 week? Unacceptable to millions who want to get to work.

@northernassist new year, same old #Northernfail Nice 15 minute delay to start the year. Keep up those high standards 👏👏 (note - sarcasm).

Monthly season ticket gone up a fiver. Trains are still delayed. Three days of strike action next week. Happy new year commuters. #northernfail
Been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of using #NorthernFail, unsurprised to find the train 5 mins late!!! #Standard!!
Outdated and unpopular Pacer trains set to be replaced, not for another 2 years though: manchestereveningnews.co.uk/…
