trying to buy from abroad - until Feb I used to do it via deutschlandticket.de (Transdev) but they switched from SEPA only to credit card only and the billing address can only be D, A, CH - while my card is a UK one. DB navigator app has SEPA with scary looking identity checks that don't work with my (German) online banking. VRR app doesn't like my device. Any suggestions? @seatsixtyone

@proseandpassion @seatsixtyone have you tried asking @jon ?

And what’s going on here?

DB proposes 06:03 La Ciotat - Toulon 06:30, depart there 06:43 for Nice Ville, onwards to Ventimiglia

Smallish station in Toulon, 13 min change should be fine

SNCF Connect confirms each train runs but won’t show me the connection. Is it erroneously insisting I need more than 13 mins to change?

SNCF shows correct La Ciotat departure
SNCF Connect Shows correct departure from Toulon
This is what it proposes for La Ciotat - Ventimiglia - going later

@jon I couldn't make any sense of the connections at Ventimiglia when I went through there last summer, so just ended up turning up and seeing what the board said. Not an option if you aren't on a FIP or interrail though

@wnd @partim @tml tell that to GWR. I'd say their success rate in predicting the orientation of their own trains is about 66%

@partim @wnd @tml they are certainly up there
