    Its ok

    Erm, it depends, in Australia, I got certain discounts on rail travel, coaches etc but you have to check if they accept them. In the UK, certain places such as McDonald's will allow them but again you'll have to check.

    There's what they offer http://www.isic.org/student-discount...worldwide.html

    And its £9 for a year.

    If you're not a student, consider the IYTC (International Youth Travel Card). You can find out exactly what it scores you discount on with our handy Discount Finder. Hope that helps!
