Scam warning over discounted Salisbury Reds travel offer

Wednesday, 23 April 2025 06:05

Salisbury Reds is warning people about a scam offering discounted travel on their bus services.

A post has been circulating on social media offering discounted travel to Salisbury residents on Salisbury Red's bus services.

The post suggests that residents can "Get 6 Months Free Travels for £1 only".

However, Salisbury Reds have confirmed that this offer and the company promoting it have no affiliation and warn that it appears to be a scam.

They said, "You may have seen the post claiming to offer discounted travel with Salisbury Reds.

"Please be advised that we are not affiliated with this company, and you should not trust the site for ticket purchases."

They also remind us that you can purchase valid tickets on the bus, from the driver or in advance via the Salisbury Reds App.
