I purchased three advanced split tickets for Euston to Manchester on 28 April for an event taking place on 28 to 29 April and then some other tickets for 29 and 30 April.

However, the event has now been postponed. I see it is possible to amend the date of travel on advances. However, the event has shifted to 6 and 7 October and TrainSplit doesn't sell tickets for that far ahead, let alone advances being possible.

Does anyone have any ideas? The tickets were bought in two separate batches as follows:

Batch 1 (total ticket cost £55.50+£1.95 saving share fee):
April 28
12:20 (no change of train required)
Euston - Milton Kynes x3
Milton Keynes - Stoke on Trent x3
Stroke on Trent - Manchester x3

Batch 2 (total ticket cost £70+£1.80 saving share fee):
April 29
18:15 (no change of train required)
Stroke on Trent - Manchester x2
Milton Keynes - Stoke on Trent x2
Euston - Milton Kynes x2

April 30
08:23
Manchester - Penrith x1 (through advance but a change of train required on route)
18:06 (no change of train required)
Penrith - Milton Keynes x1
Milton Keynes - Euston x1

Many thanks.

An option would be to amend to another date before then (check for journeys with the same price before doing so so there is no loss of value) then amend again, though that'll cost two admin fees unfortunately.

For the minute, do nothing. Firstly, because by April 27th bookings will be open for dates much further ahead than now and, secondly, because as the Coronavirus situation changes you may find that refunds on Advance tickets become available.
