I am all for criticising rail companies for when they fail the travelling public, however as I am sure some of you are already aware they have an excellent feature which I used yesterday:

Basically, if you buy a 'walk up' ticket (e.g off-peak day return) with them online but then opt not to travel, you can have a refund as long as you haven't printed them off.
I think this is sensible and very useful. Doesn't make up for all their other failings, but even so, praise when it is due.
Do other TOC's have something similar?
