Have you tried PayPal? It has worked for some when credit cards did not. Good luck.It will not accept my credit card for some reason.
Yes . I gave up and bought my tickets at the Alsa booth later on in Santiago.I am running into a problem purchasing bus tickets on Alsa's site from Madrid to Pamplona, and then Pamplona to SJPP. It will not accept my credit card for some reason.
Has anyone else encountered this, or have suggestions on how to get it to work?
Assuming it doesn't work, I guess I'll just show up in Madrid and try to buy the ticket that day at the T4 office.

Alsa has a sales booth now at the Pilgrims office in Santiago .We also had difficulty on the camino before Santiago trying to book our tickets. Gave up and bought them at the ticket office at the bus station. No problem.

I bought our tickets to Porto there last june. Very conveniant service from Alsa.
Good that you mention that Margreth. Anyway you have to go to the busstation to hop on the bus.Convenient in season but not open during the winter. Off season you need to book in person at the SdC bus station. Be sure to take your national passport with you when you book.
Bom caminho!

I faced another problem..not for you but in common.
Checking in on a Ryanair flight on the internet.
My flight was going from Porto in Portugal to Eindhoven the Netherlands.
We were one step before Santiago and whatever I tried ,no succes to reserve my prepaid homeflight and get a seat and boarding card.
I ask the receptionist of a hotel if I could use the computer and the printer.
The spanish speaking lady tried and tried as I did before many times .at last she phoned somebody and the person told her to log on on the english website of Ryanair www.ryanair.com instead of the automaticly redirected spanish webside www.ryanair.es.so I could reserve the seats and could print out the boardingcard.
Very strange.
As I remember you can check in on line 5 days ahead of your flight.Is it true you need to check-in and print your boarding passes with Ryanair or they charge you more? If so, do you remember what the window of time is for you to do so? I know you can't do it right when you buy it online.
Thanks, everyone. I don't use Paypal, so I'll just get it at the ticket counter. That said, does anyone know if ALSA accepts American Express at their ticket counters? (They say they do on their website, but it doesn't work on their website.)
