Hi guys. So basically I was travelling by train and forgot my railcard. I was stopped by the ticket guy and he asked me for all my details which I gave truthfully and he stated that someone would write to me. Unfortunately when I got back home on the same day I realised my card was expired (I know stupid mistake). So I bought a digital railcard straight away on the same day and it was activated on the same day as the incident. My question is does the digital railcard cover the entirety of that day? I've received a letter from TIL asking for my railcard but I'm not sure which one I should send. The expired one, the new one or both?

To answer the very simple point in the thread, the railcard you purchased later does not cover the journey you made earlier, for which you didn't have a valid ticket.

Someone else will no doubt reply soon with more detailed information on how to proceed.
