Bank details
You'll need an IBAN and BIC/Swift code to receive a bank transfer directly from the rail operator if your claim is approved. You can usually find these on your bank statement but if you aren't sure, please contact your bank. - 5

If applicable, you should submit receipts for expenses in accordance with the Conditions of Carriage, e.g. alternative transport/taxi receipt, or a hotel bill if overnight accommodation was necessary.
