Someone I know sent me a message to advise that they bought tickets online for a SOR from Glasgow to Brodick, price £16.40 with a 1625 Railcard. They went to an Overground station to collect them, and all they got was three blank coupons. Station staff claimed they were unable to assist, and advise to call Customer Services. The helpline number is a generic number for TfL rather than Arriva Rail London, so they advise they cannot help with ticketing queries of this nature (only tickets purchased from LUL, DLR, Tram, TfL Visitor Centre, Ticket Stops, or Oyster/CPC issues).
ScotRail web support, who sold the ticket, is closed.
Can anyone advise the best approach to take; they will be travelling in the morning well before the ScotRail help line reopens. I said to enquire at the ticket office, and be prepared to have to buy a new ticket, as I suspect it will be too early for the ticket office to deal with it. Who would they get in touch with, Overground or ScotRail? As a side point, who is responsible for this, and what if the person does not have the wherewithal to pay for a new ticket; they might be able to discuss with the Ticket Examiner (trains to Ardrossan Harbour are DOO), but that won't help with the ferry company.
