Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Southern rail to compensate passengers & TFL to take over with immediate effect.

Months of severe ongoing delays and cancelled trains are causing high levels of stress and associated costs to passengers. The level of disruption to family and working life is totally unacceptable. Someone needs to do something about it NOW.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The Government has announced a new partnership with TfL:

If you would like the Government to take a different action, you could start a new petition asking specifically for the change you would like to happen.

We also have a petition already open calling for refunds to be paid to delayed rail passengers:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
