URGENT coach travel question

[FooFighter]

My mum purchased 3 coach travel packages from seetickets 1 early bird and 2 travelling on thursday for me and my 2 mates for READING fest. I am travelling today at 7:30pm but I have just been told by a friend that if the tickets have another name printed upon them (mine have my mums name) that you need a letter of permission enabling you to use them and you also need a passport to prove you are the person mentioned in the letter. I assumed that many people buy tickets ( including coach packages) for children/friends with no intention of going themselves. Am I and my friends going to have trouble collecting my tickets on the coach without our names printed on the coach tickets?

Thanks in advance.

Shouldn't be a problem, surely the surnames will be the same if your mum brought them. I did the same in 2008 and didn't have any trouble

What are they comparing the surnames on the tickets to though? As we dont have the same surname funnily enough. I cant see that they will kick up a huge fuss but im worried also about my friends going tommorow with the tickets and my mums surname on them. Thanks for the reply.

It's fine, I've done that before and it went ok but it may depend on the guy on the coach though.

Just make sure you'll be able to phone her up to check ID. You should be fine, though. They didn't even look at the name on my ticket when I went to V.
