Losing $145,000 to a scam shattered me. I felt helpless and completely broken. That’s when I found Mrs. Mercy. Her team’s professionalism stood out right away. They didn’t sugarcoat anything—they gave me a clear roadmap and followed through with constant updates. I didn’t expect much, but they came through and recovered a large amount of what I lost. Their support made all the difference.

Ich konnte mein Handelskonto nach einer abgelehnten Auszahlungsanforderung nicht mehr aufrufen und war sehr besorgt, dass mein Investment verloren war. Doch dank Frau Olivia und ihrem Team konnte ich mein Geld schnell und unkompliziert zurückerhalten.

I have given one star because that was the minmum but it doesn't deserve that. I booked a journey and needed to amend it to add a bicycle. A message came up saying I couldn't amend it and would have to cancel and rebook, which I duly did. Then, despite having paid for the rebooking, I was charged a £5 administration fee for the original booking even though I followed the instructions and trainline advise that you can easily amend your booking. Yes you can but it costs which they fail to point out. I do not have the time and inclination to fight this any further for a fiver which is probably how they make their money> I will never use trainline again and will warn all my friends and family about theis sharp practice.

We booked 2 tickets Budapest to Prague with Trainline June 2025, & not only did we pay over twice what the train stations charge, we weren’t allocated seats, so we had to keep changing seats as new passengers arrived on train in new stations. Very poor on an 6 hour train journey

I bought tickets in the Trainline app and one of the trains in my journey was severely delayed. I was entitled for a refund for the full journey. Trainline requires a physical copy of all tickets in your journey for the refund. If you are not able to provide the physical copy it will not be refunded. I had to use the ticket of one of my legs in St Pancras Intl to get out, for crossing to Kings Cross. The ticket was not returned in the gate. That part of our journey was not refunded, even there was an evidence that I bought the ticket in the Trainline. Once you start the refund process, the tickets are blocked and cannot be printed out again in the machines. Keep this in mind when you buy tickets in the Trainline app or website, you need to provide a physical copy of your ticket for a refund.

I want a full refund. Cancelled train was travelling for important work. Had to get a taxi. Expect a full refund will seek legal advice. Tried to get a refund but errors occur saying £86 refund is more than the admin fee… disgraceful.

Do not buy tickets through Trainline for Italy. They will send you tickets which specifically say 'not valid for travel' useless in other words, and not proper tickets. Why would anyone buy a train ticket that you then can't use. You then have to spend a long time on the phone trying to get the proper tickets sent, which is what they should have done in the first place.

I made a mistake while booking at trainline: booked twice. Found the problem 2+ months later, 2 days before the travel date. Trainline gracefully cancelled duplicated tickets with full refund - exemplary behavior for others

Booked a journey from Halifax to Kings Cross for the 24/04/2025. Did not realise that at Leeds we only had 10 minutes to change for the London train. I am over 70, so we are concerned in case the train from Halifax to Leeds was late, so we tried to change that part of the journey. We were told that was not possible. We had to make a new booking for the full trip which would have been far more expensive. They refused to change the ticket for the short journey to Leeds. The actual cost of buying an earlier ticket for the short journey from Halifax one way is £5 for two. We have purchased a new ticket for the earlier train from Northern Rail. Beware if you need to change any part of your journey it will involve higher charges. We will not use Trainline again. The man from the call center in India could only say. "Computer say's No".

Horrible support, only care about taking their cut over your booking. No help what so ever when a refund is required due to a wrong booking, not even when the correct train, for the same date and time, is booked through their platform as well. Utterly useless, I would strongly recommend to book with the train company directly, I'll know I'll be doing that.

I am due to trsvel to Newcastle from Newark today then travel back tomorrow. However LNER have cancelled all trains tomorrow due to MET. office storm warnings! I cannot trvel any other day so I will now be driving there and back. There is no way for me to get a refund, why? BTW, I wouldn't even give you one star! 😡 I will not use your service again as this has happened before when I couldn't travel due to surgery!

I tried to get the last train back home but the app refused to work qnd everytime I looked back the price went from 6.20 to 6.80 and then 7.20 and after all that price changing it said unavailable to buy. Since I relied on trainline to get me home I had to wait until morning to get the next train home

I bought a ticket to London and paid Trainline £135. I am currently on the train, the conductor is saying its not a valid ticket as Trainline haven't sent a QR code with the email. I have tried to download the trainline app but it doesn't work. So I am now being told by GWR that I'll have to buy another ticket. I am utterly shocked at the messy and unnecessarily complicated IT information from Trainline. A simple e mail with a QR code isn't difficult. Absolutely disgusting service, will not use again.

We had purchased train tickets through Trainline for December 08,2024 @ 10:47, travelling from Lamballe, France to Paris, France for a total of 214.20 euros. The train was cancelled due to an electrical issue on the track, we found out once arriving at the station. In trying to get a refund, we have been denied several times. Not our problem as we were at the station ready to board. Not impressed!! Be sure to buy from a reliable source!

Travel a lot for work, however due to the nature of this I have to frequently rearrange trains. As such, I frequently get RR1 errors on refunds for tickets I don’t use (travel plans change is a legitimate reason for refund on their app), meaning I have to phone up to sort out, usually resulting in no refund. The app is so close to being usable however going forward I will just book on the day at the station which ultimately will cost my employer (although probably equals out with the amount of denied refunds) but means these cowboys won’t get any money.
