Bee Network warns against Facebook pages offering free Greater Manchester travel using the Bee Card

The Bee Network has been forced to come out and shut down Facebook posts that claim to promote free travel. Going by the name ‘Bee-Smart Card’ the account shows the Bee Network’s ‘Bee Card’ to promote a free travel promotion. 

The post promoting free travel suggests passengers can win a Smart Cad with a significant balance for just £2.35. It says: “We're giving away £150 from Bee Network, we're doing a promotion, every Facebook user can win a Smart Card with a £150 balance, for just £2.35!” 

It then goes on to add a link to where you can enter a raffle to be in with a chance of winning the card. The Bee Network has been quick to clamp down on the page, saying they are not connected.

The official Bee Network account posted to say: “We're aware of multiple pages on Facebook claiming to offer free travel or promotions using our Bee Card or a "Smart Card". We are in no way affiliated with these pages. For more information on how Bee Card works, please contact our customer service team at 0161 244 1000 or visit the TfGM website.”
