SNCF train ticket online booking payment difficulty?

For years I have booked train tickets on www.voyage-sncf.com site, printed my own tickets or retrieved from train station in France, paid with credit cards issued in Canada with no problem.



Today I tried to book tickets for July from Paris to Amsterdam , no problem each step till I filled up credit card info, then it said the payment is refused, I checked with card company, they said no transaction was asked. No luck with other cards, non with www.thalys.com either.



Is anyone with the same difficulty? Anyway to get around it?



Trenitalia.com‘s Web site has definitely been improving in recent years, and more folks are reporting success with the non-Italian credit card ticket purchase after recent revamping of the payment process.



For people who are still having problems, a ticket booking system now available at Bootsnall Travel (driven by Italiarail.com) allows you to book Italian train tickets in dollars, using credit card of your choice. This means travelers who don’t have success with the regular TrenItalia site can still purchase tickets in advance and take advantage of significant discounts. Travelers can choose the popular and convenient “ticketless” option through this system: your ticket is issued as an electronic PDF with a PNR reservation code – simply board the train, find your assigned seats, and show the PNR to the conductor when he passes.
