Helpful site to plan your travel around London

London is a very big city and it is very easy to get around using the Tube or buses. The tube map is very easy to decipher and makes it easy to work out how to get where you want to, that is if the tube lines are not shut for maintenance.

You can always check the best route for your journey on this site www.tfl.gov.uk, which is the official site for Transport for London. I frequently use the journey planner on there to find alternative routes when the tube lines are down.

Today I noticed that you can get the journey sent to your phone by text. I promptly signed
up.

BEWARE: There is no warning to say that you are signing up to a paid service. It only tells you after you have confirmed your phone number. Then it’s too late, and you will get sent the SMS for the route you were researching. Each text cost 25p and the one that they sent me was incomplete. It said 2of2 and had one line with a postcode and nothing else.

Also on the site, there is no way to make a complaint about this incomplete service. So I would advice you not to sign up and just print out the route or get an A to Z.
