Editors’ Notes

Anyone who’s booked train tickets in the UK knows it can be a labyrinthine task. Am I buying off-peak tickets? What is off-peak? What is “super” off-peak? Am I getting the best deal? We were thrilled to have all this—and more—finally made clear as day by a souped-up Trainline app. It’s become as essential to our train travel as a fully charged phone battery.

Money stolen

These gentlemen provide intermediary services for purchasing train tickets, but take no responsibility for services that aren't delivered. I purchaised train tickets via Trainline in advance, only to have the train be cancelled. Ordinarily, refunds are swiftly processed without issue as the cancellation of a train can be quickly checked. However, Trainline has denied this. Instead, they asked me to reach out to the vendor directly with a completed refund form. Despite following their instructions and spending my time to supply the requisite personal data, I've received neither a response nor a refund from the vendor even after two weeks. I've made Trainline aware that the refund process they provided has proven ineffective and that the issue remains unresolved, yet they remain indifferent. They just don't respond.

Developer Response ,

Hi there, we're sorry to hear of your recent travel experience. If a train is cancelled and travel is abandoned, a full refund can be claimed from the point of purchase. If a train is cancelled and the customer is able to board another service to reach their destination, they must then claim Delay repay from the train company they were originally booked to travel with. If you had to abandon your journey altogether, please get back in touch https://tinyurl.com/2rvxhkwm Thanks, Jamie
