When I log in, go to change the trip, and try to select that new train that is the same price, it says I don't have enough points. I admitedly don't have enough points to book the ticket as if it was new, only about 30% of the point count. Is there something I'm missing or that I have to do different?
It's a new "feature" (aka bug) that appeared last year. Up until then, I did numerous like-for-like points reservation changes without issue.
