Repeated thread!!!! Locking it down......ONLY JOKING!
I assume your talking trains?
Who's the Card holder? and/or who names on the tickets?
As they've been paid for couldn't you borrow the Card? It's only used as proof.
Also most stations use 'fast track' systems which the card is needed to print the ticket off. Just to match up the two!

Let me get this right.... Youre talking about train tickets? Cant you re-book them? OK you'll be losing your money on the first lot but at least you wont lose the cost of the match tickets as well

Mate I had the same thing last year. A pain in the arse that was to get in the train!!! I had emailed Virgin about the fact I couldn't get my mother credit card's as she was in Belgium. They told me it was ok yet I asked me mum to send me a printed copy of her card, her ID and her signature and I printed Virgin's answer to my mail! The guy at the turnstile was looking at me as if I was gonna bomb Euston but eventually let me in... Give them a ring if you can!!

I didn't think having the credit card with you was very important (+Virgin telling me that was no big deal) but I printed all the things I mentionned above just in case! I don't think they would have let me in if I hadn't!!!
Did you book your tickets with a mate's credit card? If so ask him to give you a printed copy of his ID, credit card, write a couple of words saying you're allowed to use his card with a signature and it should be ok...

Why don't ya go to the station with your dad and explain the thing?? You can't travel to up north if you don't have a credit card, what a world we live in!!
