My friends money has come out of her bank. I will assume that she will not be receiving a letter and has avoided prosecution. I will also assume that her details (name, age and address) will be disposed of or kept private indefinitely with no further action required. She will definitely never be...

Thank you very much. I can assure you that my friend will not be doing that ever again. This has scared her enough/ Thank you to everyone who took their time to answer the question asked, it has really helped. :)

Right, thank you. Overall, would it be safe to say that my friend can relax as the money will probably come out of her bank later this week as she was told it would be and was given a ticket with the 'X' on it?

an X I believe. Is this bad? Also yes it does match the time of the encounter.

You seem to have a fair bit of knowledge of this situation so I will direct this to you if that's OK? My friend looked through her bin and found an adult ticket. She must have thrown it away without looking. This ticket has a penalty fare warning on the back. My friends friend got given an...

My friend looked through her bin and found an adult ticket. She must have thrown it away without looking. This ticket has a penalty fare warning on the back. My friends friend got given an adult ticket but she said that the collector circled hers green but my friends did not get circled. Is this...

It was just the person who goes down the carriages and checks the tickets, sells tickets etc. (I'm guessing that is the Revenue Protection Manager?). She was not issued with a ticket afterwards. Will the fare still be taken from her card? It has not yet come out but she is hoping that because...

My friend said that the collector told her to put her card in the reader and told her that it will tell her that it has been declined but to do it anyway. Could this have took her details? My friend wants to be a lawyer and one day live and work in the state. Both of which require spent...

Thank you. My friend hardly travels by train so I cannot say if she has done this before. What are the chances of this being settled outside of court? --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Do you think the money will come out of my friends bank like the collector said? Or was she...

I don't think lying about age was suspected as my friend was with her friend who did the same thing. The only difference is that her friend had enough money to pay the penalty fare. If my friend had had money then this wouldn't have been an issue. What is most likely going to happen? Is...

It was with London Midland. There was no paperwork. The collector just took the details and she had to sign her name on a piece of paper that she was stupid enough not to read.

I will try to make this short and will provide more details if needed. My 18 year old friend bought a child ticket and got caught. The ticket collector asked if she was under 18 and my friend lied and said she was 17. The collector (I don't know the correct name, sorry) took the child ticket...
