Why the fuck did you pay? Have you got documentation for the fine. Did you take the details of the conductor. Does it state time on the receipt. You could get your money back. If it does not state at point of purchase. Write a letter with as much evidence to there complaints department asking for a refund and apology.

@helloworld I have not played them yet, but honestly I think I have to. To convince anybody with this story we would need the ticket we had bought but we left it at the train because we were all too drunk and tired to think clearly. Even though the conductor was probably right that our ticket was invalid, it should say that on the ticket. The DB Corporation can't expect people to look that up. If it does not explicitly give that information on the ticket to the customer it's their omission.
But I don't think I can do anything here... -
We actually have an OK service here in Denmark compared to the stories I've just read. That being said, we probably also have the most unreliable transport in Europe. I commute from start to end on a specific line. 4/5 days trains are either cancelled or late by a fuckton. Always happens when most people are traveling of course.

Went out with friends last night to celebrate a birthday, on our way back with the train we are asked for our tickets. We had bought a group ticket (for 30€/5 Persons) and showed it to the ticket checker. It was 6:20 am at that point and we were all tired and just wanted to go home, but apparently the ticket was only valid to 6 am (it does not say that anywhere on the ticket and it is called a "9-o'clock day ticket"). That asshole seriously made a record about all of us and took 60€ from everyone of the 5 of us.
The Deutsche Bahn company is the only rail company in my region, there is nothing that could compete with them, so they just shit on their customers. And now they want to privatize the highways too? Stop making public traffic something to pay for! There is no competition if there is only one traffic company with the only highways or train-web in a specific region.
