Megatrain ticket question

tangojulie

I have bought tickets via Megatrain for the South West Trains service between London and Salisbury later this week. I have received a note with a reservation number which says 'show this to the driver', which obviously would have been OK for a bus journey, but trains don't work like that. Does anyone know whether this counts as an acceptable ticket, or whether I have to exchange it for a ticket, and if so, how?

What you have will be accepted as a ticket.
That's all you get with Megatrain.
No exchange needed.

From their T&Cs

1. Passengers are required to present a valid reference number, provided at the time of booking, when boarding one of our services or entering/departing a train station.

Show it to the conductor though, I doubt the driver will be interested lol

The "Commercial Guard" which is what they are called on SWT (:p) will have a list of reference numbers travelling on his train, so you show the number, he checks his list, ticks you off!
