All cards will be disabled at this time so they get free travel in case they scan by accident 
On nx buses and other operators

It's free travel on the nite any way

Westy

The question I have to ask is why?

If its late night shopping related, is there anywhere opening late anyway?

Be very surprised if its Walsall.

Plus you'll get all the p×××heads out & about.

Do you really want more ASB on the buses?

In short, thanks but no thanks.

Can Wmca afford it?

I have not seen any 'official' publicity regarding this yet.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

So is the intention to not publicise this until the last minute to minimise how much this will end up costing the WMCA/TfWM?

But it's a valid point!

You work for NX, you know something about this promotion/offer, you've seen some communication about it, therefore drivers/staff are aware of this.

But my question is: when are the public going to be made aware of this?

If standard TFWM communications apply we will know about it 3 weeks after it happens 😂

Oh ok I'll tell you stop you all crying in your cornflakes wk comm 25th November 
All happy now

From what I've heard payment to NXWM from WMCA will depend on what's recorded on the init tablets, which I find hard to believe

Westy

Surely there's 2 people that can confirm or deny this?

Quite astonishing how some people manage to turn a thread about some positive news into an antagonistic argument.
