Hi all
Sorry it's taken me until now to come back about this...
Anway, TIL agreed to settle out of court and this issue is now behind us*
I justed wanted to thank you all for reading and commenting and providing very useful information that has deifinitely helped me. I very much appreciate...
Oh I see you point. Might this give us something to work with? I guess if there's no obligation they don't have to stick to this?
I can certainly bring it to their attention if they decline our offer via email.
Hi some bloke
First letter received 2 April
Second one received 30 April and
Final letter received 28 May
The first letter seems to suggest we would have 7 days from their second letter of 30 April which has obviously passed, or do you think otherwise?
Thanks again
Thank you MrJfish007 and cuccir
Still no word on a settlement but I still hope we can reach an agreement.
To answer you questions

I noticed also that they claimed we are...
Thanks again some bloke for your reply and reassurance. Thanks also to Haywain and Darandio for their contributions.
To clear up the misleading statements about the ticket machine (and this is where we make things harder for ourselves) -
On the night this happened my wife did not know there...
Well spotted some bloke, I have amended :)
Thank you for the detailed reply Fawkes Cat. Grovelling seems the best option to try and at this point there nothing to lose in trying.
It still doesn't feel right morally to me. The attitude of Railway staff seems to encourage boarding without a...
Thanks some bloke, I hope so as we are tired of the process now and just want out.
Thank you also Haywain, it's certainly worth a try
I've uploaded what they have sent to my wife along with the letter to them. Unfortunately I don't have the initial letter sent as it was hand written :/
Thanks...
Hello
I'm sure you must all get tired of these threads but I really do not know where else to get advice. So appreciate any in advance.
My wife recently boarded a train at Telford without a ticket and, as the conductor did not make their way down the train, looked to purchase a ticket at...
