– identifying references of the journey made or planned (date, departure time, origin, and destination) and a copy of the travel ticket. Any indication of the train or bus number, if known.
– a description of the service disruption experienced.

The complaint can be submitted in Italian or English, but for the request to be successful, it must be sent within no more than 90 days from the date of the event being contested.

How long will it take to receive a response to the complaint?

We strive to do our best for our customers and provide all the support you need. Within 30 days, you will receive a response to your complaint; if this does not happen, you are entitled to automatic compensation. The amount will be paid by bank transfer and calculated as follows: for a delay between 91 and 120 days, compensation equal to 10% of the ticket cost necessary to cover the leg of the journey subject to the complaint. In case of a subscription, the ticket cost will be obtained by dividing the price of the monthly subscription by 52 trips and the annual subscription by 624 trips. For delays exceeding 120 days, compensation equal to 20% of the ticket cost necessary to cover the leg of the journey subject to the complaint. In case of a subscription, the ticket cost will be obtained by dividing the price of the monthly subscription by 52 trips and the annual subscription by 624 trips. No compensation is provided if the compensable amount is less than 4 euros, the complaint submitted does not contain all the minimum necessary information, or if compensation has already been paid for a complaint related to the same journey.
