Is this just NX or on all operators that accept nbus

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

Doesn't affect you  you have already posted your negative comment on the free travel

@Tony - When you get 5, can you look at the TfWm web  version of the publicity, as there seems to be a bit of confusion about the X51 validlity, based on that, on Bloxwich Chit Chat Facebook?

Personally I think no to the Cannock section of the X51, but it's the wording ref Nx thats causing confusion.

Nothing confusing on there. It just states 'hop on any bus within the Bus West Midlands Boundary' and the map omits Cannock

But on the TfWM website, under "What operators are included" it does state "valid on all buses" for NX West MIdlands & Coventry, which is what some people might be questioning.

That is the same question being asked by a certain former member of this site, who has connections with that area.

I have just had it clarified that the TfWM facebook post is not correct and the free travel applies to All National Express West Midlands / Coventry services including outside the County Boundary

Just been looking at the Transport for West Midlands Facebook page and some people think it's a kick to the balls.

1) people would have brought monthly tickets and free travel is given but they don't benefit from free travel

2) here's free travel but we're cutting services in the new year.

There's multiple ways of looking at this.

Me personally, while I pay for a monthly pass, I rarely use buses after 7pm anyway, so there's no benefit to me. I'm still paying for the journeys I make during the daytime.
