Using Rail Travel Vouchers (RTV's)

[gray1404]

Can I use RTVs to pay for...

1. A Northern Day ticket (NB: using a family and friends voucher my friend who works for Northern has given me that are issued to staff)?
2. a Sailrail ticket to Douglas IOM?

I am 100% certain I shall be buying the above 2 things. Now for these last 2, I will get them if I am able to use RTVs.

3. Rail & Sail to Continental Europe (Calais and Dutch Flyer)? and/or Eurostar through ticketing?

4. Through ticketing for Preserved Railways?

Finally, out of interest:

5. to renew a Disabled Persons Railcard by post (i.e. they'd have to be enclosed with the renewal form).

If you can pay for <name of product> at an ATOC ticket office then yes, you can use RTVs to pay for it.

I'm not sure what the deal is with using them via post.

Yes. Rail Travel Vouchers are an accepted payment method, so if it's on sale...

I was refused when attempting to pay for a Railcard using a voucher at Luton Airport Parkway station. The clerk had a good read of the small print on the back of the voucher and concluded that it could only be used for purchasing tickets.

That should not have happened.
