Irish Rail Ticket Booking Marathon

    Just spent a few hours trying to book a ticket. A visitor was trying to book a ticket with his VISA card. However, as he hadn't an idea of his credit limit he would have had to take a flight back to Toronto CA to check his last visa statement in order to submit his private credit limit in order to be verified to book. Having tried his own visa card I then tried twice with my own card and failed again. Anyone else spent over 2 hours booking a ticket? Very tourist-friendly in the year of The Gathering :eek:

    I cannot remember ever having to enter a credit limit to verify a visa card???

    I was trying to get something online for my aunt recently with her visa and that credit limit requirement was presented to complete the transaction. ..I gave up and just used my paypal. I've never had it with my own visa cards.

    I think the credit limit requirement is part of an extra verification process needed to validate a card.
