Nobody can back the story up, if he can prove it then im sure he will be reimbursed. I was sold a wrong ticket once and was chucked off the train, luckily i had money brought the correct one and got on the next train. Within a week i was given £100 as an apology after a written complaintDubai Blue said:But mistakes DO get made; it's happened to me several times due to the incompetence of a lot of rail staff. He's quite adamant that CCTV footage and transaction records will back up his assertion that he bought two singles.BoyBlue_1985 said:If thats the case or not the kid had the wrong ticket, how many times do you think this story is used to try and blag a train? Im on trains everyday and hear excuses like this. Its quite clear the difference between a single and a return, in the way you get 2 tickets instead of 1. Of course the kid has just been embarrassed on the internet so now its everyone elses fault
If that's the case, he didn't deserve to have some fat-fucker hero steam into him so he could get his moment of glory.
And, I accpet that things may have changed in the 10 years since I last had the misfortune of using British trains, but returns always used to be two tickets, not one.

mine are always 2...
I did say the difference between a single and a return is you get 2 tickets instead of 1 or am i missing something
i was just clarifying to DB that I still get 2 tickets for a return.
