A month or two ago, it worked with my VISA but refused my wife's,
or the other way. It was stupid because both are on the same bank.

Probably when ticket sales there are opened to competition: IIRC, the
UK rail network opened to competition and nearly all the operators
produced broken web shops, then two half-decent ones (qjump and
trainline) appeared and the operators slowly replaced their guff with
those. Now most of them web shops work for most people most of the
time (apart from the horrible credit card iframes), but innovation has
slowed again: only a few companies offer e-tickets or m-tickets on a
few routes for a few ticket types.
Sorry - I'll get my goat.
