Trouble buying train tickets on Trentalia?
Has anyone had any trouble buying tickets on Trentalia on the internet? I have tried several times with various credit cards and get a variety of error messages from no seats available to a banking error occurred.
I'm trying to buy tickets for a family of four from Florence to Rome on July 29. I also am going to need tickets from Rome to Orvieto for July 20. I had been told it was fine to wait on Rome to Orvieto, but now Im nervous that I won't be able to get any when we are there.

Aduncan, I just purchased tickets on Italiarail.com. Great prices, same as Trenitalia. There are still super economy tickets available at $40.00 each (Florence to Rome). Website is very easy to use.

FYI- You cannot change full fare tickets purchased on Italiarail as you can tickets purchased on Trenitalia. Italiarail is a reseller and doesn't stand by any of the fare terms (exchange, refund, etc.) that are available on Trenitalia.

Standard fare Florence - Rome tickets that you can get until the train's departure cost 43 EUR for high speed trains (1 1/2 hrs), 33 EUR for IC trains (3 hrs) and 20 EUR for regional trains (4 hrs).
Rome - Orvieto costs 8 EUR by regional train (1 hr 20 min) and 16 EUR by IC train (1 hr 10 min).

>>>Some question on if my card doesn't have a chip? Could that be it?<<<
No. Did you notify your credit card company you were making an Italian online purchase so they wouldn't block the transaction?
