Identification for ticket collection
I have a friend who is stuck in Marble Falls TX. She was riding with another friend who went to jail and she was left with no ride home, but she left her purse at home in Livingston TX which contained her ID.
Can I purchase her a ticket and her be able to get on bus without her ID?
Best Answer
The Greyhound website says about remote purchasing of tickets:
Prepaid Ticket Orders (PTO)
A non-refundable $18 Prepaid Ticket Order fee will be applied at the time of purchase. This fee is per transaction, not per ticket, so it's the same no matter how many tickets you buy. The Prepaid Ticket is available for immediate use and can be picked up at the bus station they’ll be traveling from. PTO’s are only applicable at US Greyhound locations.
To pick up their tickets at the station, the person traveling will need to provide:
- Photo ID or password chosen by the person purchasing the ticket
- Confirmation Number
So it looks as though the ticket can be picked up without ID, if they know the password and confirmation number.
Presumably this is to cover a situation such as yours.
