Train ticket via WeChat
Using screenshots of my screen and Wechat, I will show you how you can easily and independently buy a ticket by pre-filling your wallet in the mentioned multi-messenger.
Have you ever had this situation when you are sitting at the airport in Beijing and waiting for a friend, and the purchased train ticket forces you to leave, and suddenly your friend writes a text message: “Sorry, I’m being delayed for another 30 minutes”?
By following this instruction you will be able to:
- Buy or exchange a ticket using only funds in your WeChat wallet.
- Exchange for a more expensive ticket with the remainder returned to your wallet account.
Working with wechat wallet
Find old booking
Change or return
Go to the booking, select the ticket and click the “Change” or “Refund” button
The system will warn us that we can exchange the ticket for free only once, but next time we will have the opportunity to return the ticket. And all this is free
New ticket
Choose a new ticket. In my case, I changed from a day train to a night train, since the buses to Shaolin stop running very early
You can change the ticket class to a more expensive or cheaper one with a refund
Also, in my case, I changed from a seated ticket to a reclining one (sorry for the jargon). So below I will show how the difference in price was returned.
Processing it means that you are still didn't change the ticket! Don't give up at this stage!
Click refresh and pay for the ticket
Click below on Refresh — the system will offer to pay. Feel free to pay. Despite the fact that you pay the full cost of the ticket, the system will then send the remainder to your WeChat without any additional actions.
As soon as you saw the inscription <strong>confirmed</strong> this means that you have been issued a ticket with the specified seat. The last screen you will see the booking that you cancelled and the new booking, also in the write-offs from the account you can see that immediately after payment, in my case a more expensive ticket, the system itself immediately returned the difference in my favor.
Be yourself!
