Yep, I advised him that if he's old enough to travel up north on a week night by himself, he's probably old enough to have his own bank account by now.

But seriously, you should be able to get a letter signed by your dad authorizing you and your friend to travel. I'm pretty sure its illegal otherwise. Speak to consumer rights people. Did it not say when you purchased it? :?:

You generally find there's no need to panic, and that there's usually a solution... unless you're dealing with Ryanair, of course :roll:
they saiid they cant print off tickets as ive got internet tickets blah blah blah someone can print it off again and use em blah blah blah im fucked
Hmmm... I see their point. Can't you just borrow your dad's credit card for the day, or doesn't your dad trust you to not lose it? :lol:

I bet you wish you hadn't clicked on e-ticket now, don't ya?! :lol: :wink:
I FUCKING DO!!! ESPECIALLY AS ITS 2 AWAY GAMES :(

i dont think even credit card will save me as card holder + ticket name dont match .....

wish thoes c**ts at virgin could of matched there was a mistake in booking!!! c**ts
I still don't understand?

It's okay for both Ticket and the credit card not to match many people do this....Companies, families etc...

If you use the fast track systems machines outside of the ticket office. All you have to do is insert the card in the machine. The card should only be needed as this is your reference to print of the tickets.

So if you've got an e-ticket the fare's been paid for. The e-ticket replaces a ticket bought at the station.

So why do you still need the credit card?

Samis have you checked the website.

http://www.virgintrains.co.uk/routes-st ... astticket/

As I thought take your e-ticket to the 'fast track' machines along with the card. Insert the card along with along with entering your fast track reference. This will be on the your e-ticket. The tickets will print out.
