Cancellations to services between Lockerbie and Carstairs- more information here
If you bought a train ticket but were unable to travel on that service because of disruption to the train service, you can claim a full refund.
If you travelled with us and reached your destination 15 or more minutes late, you are entitled to delay repay compensation.
You can claim a full refund if you didn't travel due to disruption to the train service. If you didn’t take your train for any other reason, you can get a refund for the value of the ticket, minus an administration fee of £5 (£10 for season tickets).
The refund process differs slightly depending on the type of ticket you bought and where you bought it:
Anytime, Off-Peak and Super Off-Peak tickets
We can provide refunds on these tickets for any reason – delays, cancellations or you simply didn’t need to make the journey.
Advance tickets
Refunds on Advance tickets back to your original method of payment are possible if you were unable to travel due to delays or the cancellation of your train.
Season tickets
Normal season ticket refund rules apply, and the refund will be calculated from the date that the ticket is surrendered. Note that there is a minimum period of remaining validity for a season ticket refund to be issued:
Three days of validity on a seven-day season ticket
One week of validity on a monthly season ticket
One month and 18 days of validity on an annual season ticket.
You can use the season ticket refund calculator to get an estimate of how much you'll receive for an annual or custom length (longer than one month) season ticket. The exact amount you receive may vary depending on the final validation of the refund application.
Car Park and Plus Bus season tickets are refundable under the same conditions as rail travel season tickets.
