I have just booked a return ticket Cork-Dublin through work. In other words they have booked the ticket and asked me to tell them the name on my credit card so that I can collect it from the machine in Kent Station Cork before my journey.
Is this standard practice - ie will the machine issue the ticket just based on the name on the credit card and not the number? (the ticket was not booked using my credit card)
Additionally if I was to go to the station say a day or two before the journey will the machine print the ticket for me in advance or will this only work on the morning of my journey.
