Problem with High Speed Rail Reservation System

Not sure why you are having difficulties. I just did a test booking from America on the THSRC English website, going all the way to the payment screen and encountered no problems.

Try clearing all cookies and restarting your PC, see if that helps. If not, try booking from travel agent websites such as www.eztravel.com.tw. If that fails too, call and try to book over the phone. If all else fails..... well, you will probably be able to get a ticket on the spot anyway, so don%26#39;t worry about it.

I%26#39;m using the english panel too.

Stuck at the Confirm Reservation..when i wanna click confirm than proceed to payment, it will prompt, system busy try again later...

I tried my home PC, now using my office PC and even ,my friend PC....cos I am buying for 6.30am ticket, will the ticketting booth be open

The reservation desk is open at 6:00 a.m. In any event, you can always go to the station the night prior and buy the ticket for next morning. Advance purchase stops at 10:30 p.m. every night.

I am thinking of settling all my train ticket online, that I need not rush to Taipei Main Station at I only reach Taipei on 29/3 (9pm) and will need to depart to Chiayi the next morning at 6.30am.

Phone booking applicable for oversea customer?

I%26#39;ve called Taiwan THRS, they say cannot book thru phone booking. Suggest I buy on the day itself and worst come to worst I will have to take the ';free standing '; tickets.

They oso checked that their system is not overload and ask me to check on my network but I tried lots of other PC, the same error appear.

Anyone in Singapore can help to try out the website and see u can do the booking.

today oso cannot..

got stuck in the same place.

The odds of the 6:30 train being full is almost zero, so I am sure you will be able to get a seat. If the lines are long, use the automated ticketing machine. These machines won%26#39;t take foreign issued credit cards, so make sure you have cash at hand.

Sberry, the system works only between 6AM and midnight. Could that be the reason, I wonder?

but it stated 24hr service on the webpage.

but not likely cos i tried but during office hour but it just does not seems to work.

it%26#39;s okie, i will continue to try until the day i%26#39;ve to depart to taiwan.

thanks people.

sberry, just buy on site, one rarely fails to get a seat unless it is a major holiday.
