TDR refund Amount? [2024]
The amount of money you get back from a TDR (Ticket Deposit Receipt) depends on why your train trip didn’t happen as planned. Here’s the breakdown in simple terms:
- Full refund: If the train is cancelled by the railways for any reason, you’ll get all your money back.
- Full refund: Your train is super late (more than 3 hours) and you decide not to travel, you can get all your money back.
- Partial refund: In some cases, like a coach issue (like not having the class you booked), you might get some money back, but not all of it.
Basically, if it’s not your fault the train trip falls through, you get all your money back.
