Issue of Tickets

Some tickets have limited availability. Although we check availability before quoting the fares, we cannot guarantee the availability of such tickets until you confirm the details of your journey immediately prior to payment. However, we do not charge your credit card until your order has been processed. We take all reasonable measures to ensure that the times and fares quoted on our Booking Service are correct. However, despite our efforts, we cannot guarantee that all of the information on our Booking Service (including times and fares) is correct, as our source data is provided from third-party data providers and/or train operating companies. If we become aware of an error, we will take reasonable measures to rectify it. If you have purchased tickets which are subject to an error, we will refund the amount charged to you in full.

When we or the train operating company or the booking system that you are using have confirmed your booking by email to your registered email address, we will fulfil your tickets to you using the fulfilment method you selected when you made your booking. Although we endeavour to have tickets delivered in accordance with timescales supplied by our delivery agents, we cannot be responsible for any guaranteed delivery times.

If you selected to have your tickets sent to you by post, please check your tickets when you receive them. If you believe that the tickets that we have sent you do not meet the information you provided at the time of booking through our Booking Service, please contact us immediately.

You must ensure that you are in possession of the tickets booked before you board the train. If you cannot produce a valid ticket for the class of accommodation and service that you are using, you will have to pay the appropriate fare on the train and a penalty fare may also be payable. We, the train operating company and the ticket inspector reserve the right to refuse to accept your ticket to the extent that it is unsatisfactorily displayed or to the extent that we or they have reason to suspect that a fraudulent use of confirmation, transfer to a different person, or other abuse or reproductions, copies or counterfeits of any ticket are in circulation.

Compensation and Refunds for Delayed or Cancelled Journeys

If the service on which you have booked to travel is cancelled or severely disrupted, you may be entitled to compensation or a refund.
