I have two of these for an SBB Halb Tax (n.b. Its only valid for new orders of a Halb Tax, not renewals)
Needs to be redeemed by 30 April 2025 and you can set a start date up until 30 June. First come first serve, I will PM the code to whoever is interested.
I have 2 more in case more people would like to have one.
If only they would spend half as much keeping their existing customers happy …
They give existing halb tax customers a CHF 20 loyalty discount when they renew.
So existing customers pay 170 while new customers pay 160.
I’m not so certain it saves me 170 francs a year.
that’s relatively easy to check, as you have all of your ‘trips’ stored in the portal. Worth also the ‘halbtax PLUS’ (pity they don’t accept it in international trips). But there is where you really need to make your numbers! if you don’t deplete the credit in 12 months, you lose FULLY the 20% discount…
btw, i got myself a ZRH - VIE - ZRH yesterday on the flashy new OBB nightjet trains…those ones where you cannot even sit down on your bee-cell - you can just lie and try to sleep…
Its still risk free in the sense that whatever you buy you get back if it isn’t used, you just don’t get the 20% discount. I could probably save a little money by buying one instead of a GA, but I’m just too lazy to book trips weeks in advance to get Supersaver rates.
looks like a Japanese hotel to me 
yep, it does! particularly the mini-cabins. I was in HB today, and I saw that the nightjet that goes to Budapest still has the historical old cars 
this was the announcement of the ultra modern OBB ones… Nightjet of the new generation - Nightjet
There was a campaign from Interdiscount in the end of 2024, when a new customer could buy Half Fare for 95 CHF.
Otherwise, the cheapest Half Fare for the new customers is 152 CHF, but you need a Supercard and have to be a member of Hello Family Club. The next cheapest option is 157 CHF, if you get a trial Half Fare for 33 CHF for 2 months first, and then get a 33 CHF discount for the yearly abo.
if you sacrifice your first born it’s 110 franks and if you sacrifice your neighbour’s firstborn it’s 130?
The following year, does your second born count as first born?
I remember when it was introduced with a lot of fanfair! CHF100 plus two months free! Late ‘80s I recall.
That’s not bad considering inflation. I can only go by the UK which is what I know but in the 80s a Mars bar was 15p compared to 80p today (and its shrunk in size).
