That would be a total and utter rip-off for what the ticket offers. You have to bear in mind how much bigger the London Zones 1-6 and Greater Manchester regions are. They are massively larger areas than Merseyside and you could argue both provide a more comprehensive network of public transport overall than here.

Charging £7-8 for a Saveaway would be outrageous and I am certain the trains would take a big hit in revenue if that were to happen as people desert that obscene price in favour of the bus day tickets which represent very good value for money in a larger region than the Saveaway if multiple journeys are required.

The problem being is the trains have there own day pass which would probably be kept down , but one problem would be instead of joined up travel options everybody would start going there own ways , the saveaway is the multi modal ticket of choice for most people.
