What Are Train Delay Claims?

Train delay claims compensate passengers when rail companies fail to meet their service obligations. You may be eligible if:

Delayed by 30 minutes or more – Most operators offer partial or full refunds for delays starting at 30 minutes.
Cancelled without suitable alternatives – If your train was cancelled and no reasonable replacement was offered, you're entitled to compensation.
Caused you to miss a connection – If a delay or cancellation caused you to miss a planned connection, you can claim for the disrupted journey.
Left you out of pocket due to extra transport or hotel stays – Costs like taxis, accommodation, or meals caused by rail disruption may be reimbursable.

If any of the above apply, you're likely entitled to claim compensation.

EU Regulation 1371/2007

Compensation under this EU law includes:

You are entitled to the following if your delay was:

25% refund – if delay was between 30–59 minutes
50% refund – if delay was 60–119 minutes
Full refund – if delay exceeded 120 minutes

Note: Operators must also provide support such as meals or hotel stays if needed.
