I was intending to travel between Huddersfield and Birmingham New Street early on Sunday 22nd December, splitting at Manchester, catching the 08:05 TPE service from HUD to connect with the 09:27 XC service at MAN.
I purchased my ticket for the MAN to BHM leg from the TPE website on Sat 21st Dec so I could reserve a seat, and was intending to get my HUD to MAN ticket at the station as I wanted to use some RTV's.
Up early Sunday morning, checked the trains, 08:05 listed as cancelled, (Train crew problems IIRC), quick check on NRE showed the next available train departing at 09:25, which would get me to BHM too late, so I immediately cancelled the tickets online requesting a refund, stating the reasons above. I then made alternative arrangements.
I have heard nothing from TPE, in fact I never got a confirmation email when I booked my tickets, I had expected the refund to show up in my account within a couple of days at the most, any suggestions what to do next?
I trust they won't have the audacity to charge me the extortionate £10 admin fee, as it was, after all the cancellation of their train that caused the problem.
