Prompt and helpful service

I sent a query to the customer service after receiving an email that the fourth train of five making up a journey was cancelled. The wording about my options was ambiguous. I got an immediate response from an agent, agreeing it wasn't terribly clear and giving me a new itinerary. In this age of bots and wordy meaningless scripts, it felt great to deal with a human being who was happy and empowered to help.

Unfortunately the team cannot read!

We were one of many people who had to leave a cancelled festival early. I got new train tickets and did not use my prebooked ones. I submitted my request for a refund within the time window and was asked to submit further information by forwarding an email. I did this promptly but they then claimed it did not contain all the information. It did. The email thread retained an auto email at the top so I missed a further request. They refused to refund after this, saying I had failed to submit in time, when in fact they had just not read the email correctly.

Contrary to their reply below, I did in fact get all the information from the email I had forwarded to them. It was all present.

Hi Michelle,

Your updated review still doesn’t reflect the correspondence we received.

You forwarded an email to us on 1 September. We read it, but it did not contain all of the information required to assess your refund request. In particular, it did not show the date and time the replacement tickets were purchased, the ticket type or the price paid.

On 2 September, we therefore asked you to provide the full booking confirmation showing those details. Our records show that message was viewed that evening. We did not receive a response until 11 October, more than five weeks later.

When you replied in October, you typed the additional booking details into your email. That is not the same as the retailer-issued booking confirmation we had asked you to provide, and that confirmation was never provided.

We appreciate that you have explained you missed our 2 September request because of how the email thread appeared at your end. However, that does not mean we failed to read the information you originally sent. We asked for further evidence precisely because the forwarded email did not contain everything required.

We understand you’re unhappy with the outcome, but it is not accurate to say the refund was refused because our team failed to read your email.

First time using this company and after contacting them about our seat reservations, I was blown away with their level of amazing customer service. Adam replied to me really quickly and was so lovely. He helped me change my seat reservations for our outbound and inbound journey and helped reassure me about it all. Adam really went above and beyond when assisting me, way above my expectations. I wish all customer service was to this standard. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company and Adam is fantastic!

Trainsplit offers excellent service and the best value fares

TrainSplit consistently offers the best fares and the biggest savings.
What makes it more remarkable is that when I have needed to change or amend a ticket it’s actually a person that helps you rather than some awful bot or AI.
This morning Jonathan sorted out a refund for some tickets we needed to cage. I didn’t need to go online or onto a webchat and spend hours waiting. He asked a couple if questions to confirm the details and then just sorted out the refund. It’s remarkable in this day and age and TrainSplit remains the model that others ought to follow. The people at TrainSplit are all friendly and helpful. Honestly it’s a really good organisation from this customer’s perspective. Thanks to Jonathan!

Extremely efficient

A very efficient way of checking prices and times, and a great system for booking. Familiarity is requied to successfully navigate your way around in order to get the optimum option, but I;ve been using the app for several years now, and it always works well for me.

Due to plans changing minute to minute I had to change travel plans and then also got replacement ticket dates all wrong too. Pam sorted it all quickly and with explanation where appropriate.

Excellent Customer Service

I had panic late afternoon when trying to find confirmation of my travel the following day. It was 5.15 and the Customer Service closed at 5.30 so I was extremely pessimistic that I would get a response in time. To my delighted surprise I got an almost immediate response and within a short time my booking was found and confirmation sent to me. Excellent customer service!

Booked tickets for wrong day

Booked tickets for wrong day, refund app was easy and brilliant to use. In addition I had emailed customer service in the evening. By the morning I already had a response even though I’d told them I’d sorted it. Excellent customer service and great refund tool for numpties like me that book the wrong date for my journey! Will definitely use again.

Hi Simon,

We didn’t refuse to refund your whole booking.

Your booking included flexible tickets, which we offered to refund, and a £25.35 Advance ticket, which wasn’t refundable because your work was cancelled, not your train.

You contacted us on 14 September for travel on 16 September. Giving two days’ notice doesn’t change the refund terms of an Advance ticket. We explained when these tickets can be refunded and also gave you the option to change it if your work was rearranged.

You then contacted CrossCountry, who referred you back to us because TrainSplit sold the ticket. That doesn’t make the ticket refundable or mean CrossCountry had authorised a refund.

We also offered to refund the flexible tickets in your booking. That refund wasn’t accepted before the deadline of 23:59 on 15 September, so those tickets have now expired.

You’re of course free to book elsewhere in future, but unfortunately a different retailer won’t come with different rules for Advance tickets. Wherever you book, it’s worth checking the ticket type and conditions before buying, as those are the terms you’re agreeing to.

We’re sorry that you disagree with the refund rules, but we’ve explained the position and the options available throughout our email thread. We don’t set the refund conditions for Advance tickets and can’t apply different rules to individual customers.

I had to cancel my train tickets because two funerals of close friends were happening during my trip to West Country. Jonathan treated me really well and I cannot thank him enough. It’s a stressful time and to be treated so well is really helpful. Thankyou🙏

I made a claim for a ticket refund for same day travel but could show that I had booked a replacement ticket which was about 3 times the amount of the one I had originally purchased, as I had to get home for an emergency. I processed the refund expecting to get a no at some point in next few days but someone came back within 10 mins and confirmed they would process the return. Excellent customer care from a real person - I think :)
