Type of Ticket: The type of ticket you purchase can affect whether your name is printed on it. For example, some tickets, like e-tickets or mobile tickets, may not display passenger names as they are considered more flexible and transferable.
Amtrak.com or Amtrak Mobile App: Most tickets purchased online can be canceled and refunded online. Phone: Refunds may be processed by calling 1-800-USA-RAIL (1-800-872-7245). Amtrak Stations: Refunds may be processed at stations with Amtrak ticket offices.
Refunds: Full refund to original form of payment with no fees if canceled 15 days or more before departure. 25% fee charged if canceled less than 14 days before departure. Tickets on unreserved services incur 25% fee if canceled an hour or more after purchase.
Variations such as abbreviated names, typos or spelling mistakes aren't usually a problem. The ticket inspector (if they notice) will recognize that it's simply human error.
Can I use my railcard to buy a ticket for someone else? Many railcards allow you to buy tickets for people who are travelling with you. You cannot buy tickets with a railcard discount and give them to someone who will be travelling alone without a railcard.
It's an offence to board a train without a ticket. The only exceptions to this are: If the ticket office is closed. If a self service ticket machine that accepts cash isn't working and the ticket office is not open or there is no ticket office.
Full refund to original form of payment if changed or canceled within 24 hours of purchase, regardless of time elapsed between purchase and scheduled departure (within one hour for tickets on unreserved services). “No Show” Policy: After departure, all fares are non-refundable and cannot be changed.
