I'd like to travel from London - Poulton-le-Fylde early on Thurs 21 July (probably departing Euston at 6:17) and return mid-afternoon. I have a 16-25 railcard, but can't work out whether I'm allowed to buy an off peak return using Virgin's railcard easement.

Red Spotted Hanky/My train ticket/Southern all say off peak is fine.
NRE/TPE/Virgin all say I need an anytime ticket.

However, I made the same journey once before, and Virgin sold me an off peak ticket at the ticket office on the day.

Any ideas? Thanks

An off-peak ticket is valid, so long as the journey is priced by Virgin (which it is) and you're travelling on the Virgin leg of the journey only/first (which you are :D ) so you should be fine :) (a ticket the other way round would mean you'd have to wait for an off-peak time, as the restriction states that it is only Virgin who will honour the ticket at peak times)
