Getting a refund off Irish Rail

taylorconor95

I got a Refund Application Form in the station the other day, and no sooner had I got on the train then I realised that there was no address on the form.

Does anyone know where I need to send this form to?

You bring it back to the station you got it from along with the ticket that you are claiming for. Read the back of the form for more details.

Don't you just return the ticket to the station?

why do you want money back? was your train cancelled?

never heard of sending away for a refund.

You can get a refund for a number of reasons .

Aye i know, but the train being cancelled is the easiest.

you can get a refund if you don't use it, but they have some charge and its more hassle than its worth.

You can get a refund for any unused part of a ticket which depends on the time frame that you claim. The percentage of the refund will lessen the longer you wait before claiming.

Ticket Refunds:

Refunds for tickets purchased at ticket offices or ticket vending machines

If you decide not to use a ticket you have bought, you can apply for a refund at any main Intercity station, the DART Office at Pearse Station or any Travel Centre. When your application is processed we will contact you by post.

When you buy a ticket in advance, we will only give you a refund if you return it before the day you were due to travel. We will normally charge an administration fee and we may ask for extra evidence to support your claim for a refund.


Immediate refunds on unused tickets purchased at ticket offices

When you buy tickets on the day of travel and you decide not to take the train, we will give you a full refund provided you return your unused ticket immediately to the ticket office at which you bought it.


Refunds for tickets purchased online

If you reserve your ticket online the following refund rules apply.

Tickets will only be eligible for a refund if you present them for cancellation before the time your outward train journey is due to start.
Tickets cancelled up to the day of travel - refund of 80% of the ticket price
Tickets cancelled on the day of travel - 50% refund

Online bookings for special services or promotions have their own conditions for refunds.

Refund policies for these are available when you are booking.

You hand it back in to a ticket office when it is completed, and they send it off for you to be processed. You don't post it off yourself.
