My travel plans have changed and I need to cancel several seat reservations made through Interrail, most notably the night sleeper Zurich/Budapest, in both directions (single person room) and the night sleeper Budapest/Bucharest both directions (couchette).

The “Exchange and refund conditions for reservations” page gives information on this, but no links on how to actually do it! Can you help please? Thanks.

There should be a button in your reservations overview to get a refund. I'm not sure how an exchange works; possibly via customer service. I almost never book reservations via Interrail.

The best place to book reservations is often not via Interrail, since they add extra booking fees. Zürich-Budapest and Budapast-Bucharest are best booked via ÖBB or MÁV.

In general, use this overview as a guide:
