Money back for returned pass

Sorry, but it's complicated, I'm going to write a newspaper. On November 20th I bought 2 Global Passes - 1 month successively in first class.On November 26th I still hadn't received the passes, but I received an advertisement from Interrail"Save 25% on all Global Passes until December 17th and embark on an adventure that will leave a lasting impression."I immediately sent an email asking because no one told me there would be a 25% discount offer!!!! and that I wanted the amount I had paid in excess of 400€ refunded.I was told that it wouldn't be possible, but that I could return them when I received the passes and my money would be refunded immediately (1610€) and I could buy two new passes with the discounted amounts.And that's what I did, I bought 2 new passes even though I hadn't received the others.2 days later I received the passes with the old values, this was on 28/11/24, I just changed the recipient and sent it back via DHL, even though there was a printout on the envelope that

Assistance Needed: Issue with My Interrail Pass  

Dear Interrail Community, I’m reaching out for help regarding an issue with my Interrail Pass. It appears to have been linked to the wrong email address, which I no longer have access to. I urgently need to have the pass sent to my current email address so I can use it for an upcoming trip. If anyone knows how to resolve this quickly or has experienced a similar situation, I’d be very grateful for your guidance. Thank you so much for your support! Best regards, Luc

Trains from France (Marseille/Nice) to Italy (Genova)

Hey guys, I’m planning an Interrail travel next year in summer partly going to Marseille and I would like to go to Genova from there since I have seen a train connection in the Interrail map. I can see that the connection Marseille still exists from the SNCF and Trenitalia sites but the connection doesn’t show up in the App. Is this route not included in the Interrail Ticket? Do you have any idea why it is this way? Greetings Fabian

AUTOCAR - Car REGIONAURA 33625” - Lyon Part-Dieu - Gare Routiere to Annecy

I’m after advice/information on a SNCF Connect option that I can see on their website. Their website only shows timetables within the next 30 days & I’m being very premature in looking for choices for a planned trip on 23 April 2025! However, one of the options on the Lyon Part-Dieu - Gare Routiere to Annecy is an “AUTOCAR - Car REGIONAURA 33625”. Is this a bus? The timetable makes this a good option for us. Does anyone have any advice/opinion on whether this is a feasible option? I have a 1st class Global 15 day 2 month Eurail pass. Can this Pass be used on this trip? Thanks

QR code is enough to board the train?

Hi I have planned a trip from Bologna to Hamburg and need to change 3 trains.For the first two trains it is mandatory to reserve the seat, for the last one it is optional. My question is: for the last train without seat reservation, is the QR code shown in the app enough to board the train? Or do I have to confirm my ticket somehow? Thank you.Marco

Tirano to Milan train operating in January 2025?

Hello! Looking for some advice/help. Me and my partner are planning on traveling from tirano to Milan on Tuesday 7th January. On Google maps and eurorail planner it doesn't seem to show this as an option (in January but it does show for December) and instead routes back over the Alps and via the mainline railway. On the Italian train websites it shows services available. Just wanted to check are these services running in January?

Unable to generate ticket for global pass even after activating

Hi all, my family and I are planning a two-week trip covering five countries, starting December 16th. However, I am unable to generate tickets through the Eurail app for our saved trips. I have already added my global passes and generated a ticket for the Bernina Express. Since then, the yellow sliding switch is not appearing for any other trains. I have reserved seats, but cannot generate tickets. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Two passes on two devices but 1 account

Hello. My husband and I have 1 pass each. I’ve loaded them both into the app and created 1 trip and a duplicate for him on my device and logged into my account. When I log into the same account on his device I can’t see the same details. Should I, or do I have to load everything (passes, trips etc) seperately on both devices? If yes, if I change a trip on my device will that replicate to the other device? Thanks

Strasbourg transfer

I have seen this question asked in older forums but haven’t seen a good answer regarding a transfer time of 12 minutes at Strasbourg. We will be arriving on a TER train from Basil into Strasbourg with a 12 min transfer to the TGV INOUI going into Paris CDG. If we miss the TGV train, the next one is about a 4 hr wait. Are there dedicated platforms for TER and TGV trains ? Has anyone traveled this route recently that can give me some tips ?

Gezocht: enthousiaste Interrailers voor panelgesprek op reisbeurs

Goeiemiddag Interrail-community Op 16 maart 2025 organiseert ons reisinformatiecentrum Wegwijzer vzw de alternatieve reisbeurs Reismarkt in de Stadshallen in Brugge. Tijdens dat evenement inspireren we duizenden aspirant-reizigers door gesprekken met honderden ervaren reizigers en door lezingen, reportages en panelgesprekken over reizen. We zouden op onze reisbeurs heel graag een panelgesprek over Interrail organiseren, omdat we merken dat dat concept steeds meer aanslaat, maar er toch veel reizigers de stap op de trein nog niet durven te zetten, omdat ze met te veel vragen kampen. Daarom zoeken we enkele enthousiastelingen die recente ervaring hebben met Interrail-reizen, die zin hebben om daar op 16 maart in Brugge hun ervaringen over te delen tijdens een panelgesprek. Sowieso zal dat heel velen inspireren! Mocht je interesse hebben om je Interrail-ervaringen te delen tijdens Reismarkt, mag je hier gerust reageren of een mailtje sturen naar bjorn@wegwijzer.be. Dan neem ik nadien zo s

Linking Planners across Web and Mobile App

I find using the web easier to create plans of my coming trip and prefer it to the mobile app. It seems these two ways of creating trips are not linked albeit I guess the stuff is stored against my account. Is there a way to do this - create on one and port to the other preferably web to mobile app. Also I would like to print out my planned trip but it seems that I cannot print out a planned trip in detail from the mobile app. I can send an image to my email address and then print it out but not in detail. Also, whilst not relevant here but a whinge - this community web site registering process has a poor interface … when something is in error it clears all the fields. All this is fairly elementary to IT savvy folk. What’s the problem!

However there is a massive charge of €320.00 for the direct 7:53 train, for 2 adults & 2 youths. Kindly assist, how can I reserve our seats without such a charge, do I need to first stop elsewhere? Thank you

Supplement

Hi, on the direct train from Amsterdam to Cologne on the Rail Europe site there is no charge, but I can’t add the booking to reserve the seats (I assume it is because there is not a seated reservation fee to be paid). If I then go to the exact same train and journey to the Eurail site, there is a supplement charge they want to charge. Kindly assist, why is there supplement charge on Eurail site, and why can’t I add the booking on the Rail Europe site, which has no charge. With thanks

How to choose the pass

Hello everyone, I would like to take a two-city trip, starting from Milan I would like to go to Paris, stay there three days, then from Paris go to Vienna, stay there another three days and return to Milan. It would be 3 days of travel but I don't know if I have the possibility to book direct trains or if I have to make overnight changes and then consider more travel days until I see availability. How do I decide how many travel days to put in if I don't know what trains are available? Thank you
