Train delay and rail complaint FAQs
Can I claim Delay Repay if my train was delayed?
Delay Repay depends on the train operator scheme, the length of the final-destination delay, ticket evidence and any exclusions. The builder helps organise the evidence and estimate the possible route.
Can I ask for expenses as well as Delay Repay?
Expenses should usually be recorded separately from Delay Repay compensation. Keep receipts and explain why the expense was necessary.
What if my Delay Repay claim was rejected?
A rejected claim may still be worth reviewing if the journey timeline, ticket, final-destination arrival time or operator response appears incomplete or unclear.
Does Quaerens submit the rail complaint for me?
This free self-service builder prepares a complaint pack for you to review and send yourself. Quaerens does not automatically submit the complaint.
