Can I use rail travel vouchers as part of payment for a railcard?

I received a £20 voucher as a refund as I was overcharged repeatedly when using my 16-25 railcard on the train (by about £3 a time) - the guards refused to accept my railcard was valid on the journey - despite internet printouts, and stamped and signed notes from the ticket office.
Thing is my journeys cost only £12, so wondered if I could use it as part payment toward a new 16-25 railcard. I seen on a few forums that people have, but I can't find anything definite on the 16-25 site.
A lady at the preston ticket office said I could, but is there anything in black and white incase blackpool staff say this isn't the case?

Another way would be to use the vouchers to buy two of your normal tickets - one for immediate travel and another for future use.0
