Are you able to excess a railcard discounted ticket to full fare?
I purchased and collected a Surbiton to Southampton Off Peak Peak Return online (from First TPE) for £20.60 with a Network Card discount, but foolishly left my railcard at home when setting off on my journey
I realised by the time I got to the station, but didn't have time to go home to get the railcard, so went to the ticket office at Surbiton and asked if they could excess my ticket to the full non-railcard discounted fare. The clerk said he was unable to do this and could only sell me a new full fare ticket and I should then claim back the original ticket back from First TPE. What he actually then sold me was a SWT £15 promotional fare.
