My understanding is that you claim from the rail company who are responsible for the delay. The Chiltern service was on time, but I missed it because the TfL service didn't run to its advertised schedule.

I have a season ticket from Aylesbury Vale Parkway to London Travelcard Zones 5-6. On Monday, I had intended to catch a Metropolitan Line train from Moor Park to Amersham that was scheduled to depart at 18:09 and arrive at 18:25.
