Can I get a refund if I cancel a waiting list ticket?
Ugh, waiting list tickets are so stressful! Thankfully, I think I found out I can get a refund if I cancel before the train leaves – but theres a catch! It has to be at least 30 minutes beforehand, or Im stuck with nothing but a frustrating loss. Theyll take a small fee, too, which is annoying, but better than losing the whole amount. Im definitely setting a reminder to cancel well in advance; the thought of losing all that money makes me anxious!
Okay, so you’re wondering about refunds on waiting list tickets, right? Ugh, waiting lists, they’re the worst, aren’t they? I always feel like I’m in limbo, never knowing if I’m actually going anywhere!
Anyway, from what I’ve gathered (and please double-check this yourself, okay? I don’t want you blaming me if I’m wrong!), you can usually get a refund if you cancel a waiting list ticket. But – and this is a big BUT – timing is everything!
Apparently, you need to cancel at least 30 minutes before the train is scheduled to depart. Otherwise? Poof! Your money’s gone. Can you imagine how awful that would feel? I’d be kicking myself for days!
They will ding you with a small cancellation fee, of course. Gotta get their cut, right? It’s a bit annoying, but honestly, it’s still way better than losing the entire fare. Think of it like… paying a small price for peace of mind.
Honestly, I’m such a worrier, I’d probably set like, three different alarms on my phone just to remind myself to cancel well in advance. I’m not kidding! Remember that time I forgot to cancel a movie ticket and ended up paying for a film I didn’t even see? Yeah, I’m not making that mistake again! The thought of just throwing money away… shudders. So yeah, set that reminder! You’ll thank me later. 😉
