The app often has issues with booking tickets, causing you to fail the booking or double book. Often you cannot refund the double booked tickets. Also, they will sell you tickets with cancelled connections and not refund the full amount. Had I not noticed that the connection was cancelled I would have been stuck in Bologna for 27 hours. Then they won't refund you a ticket for the full amount, rather refunding 50 dollars for an 80 dollar ticket. Just buy direct from the train, pointless app.

Hello, I am sorry to hear your trip was disrupted and you were unable to get a full refund. Please contact our customer service team here https://support.thetrainline.com/en/support/tickets/new so we can look into this for you. Thank-you, Aoife.

Customer service doest appear to exist. I don't understand why this app has high reviews. It suggested the wrong station to purchase a ticket, highlighting it as the best option. Once purchased, it kept erroring out and wouldn't let me update the ticket to a new station or time, and then refused a refund. So I had to spend 3 times more on a first class ticket on short notice. Working as designed? You have to use Google to find out the actual station you need, so what's the point of this app?

The old app is so much better. This one is less intuitive (especially adding saved passengers) and feels laggy. Engineers, replacing a great working native app by something similar to oui.sncf's horrible webview isn't the way to go. What makes trainline so great is the clean UI and lag-free experience. Sure, this web-based version will be easier to update but what's the point if you're giving up the main features?
