I sent them a question via the online form about whether I could search their database for my name, they responded saying my name was not in the database, which was because I had not yet bought a ticket. So I have been assuming they will confirm that a ticket has been transferred to my name. I sent ...

FWIW, I got an answer, and that is that ticketing support is still willing to give this sort of confirmation.
