I travelled WBY to KNG via WIM using TAP2GO with a SNR loaded. SWR charged me a travel card cost of £19.30, I think it should be £10.90 or even £7.65
I touched in at WBY and out at KNG and again touched in at KNG and out at WBY. The gateline at KNG opened for exit and re-entry

This is a continuous travel authority a touch in/out type card. Other than the reader saying "journey started" or "Journey ended" during travel I don't any feeling that I have a valid ticket like I would with a paper one.

Thanks all
