    TFL Oyster Fare I don't understand

    I didn't know it had changed, is that on all rail fares? Yet single fare finder still says £2.40. Surely this would be picked up 1734047739 Its a good theory since 3.7*.66 = 2.442 whereas 3.7*.666 = 2.4642 rounded down to the nearest 5p. Although I would still have thought they would have made...

    TFL Oyster Fare I don't understand

    Yesturday I did a journey from Vauxhall [National Rail] at 19:13 to Feltham [National Rail] 19:49 with my TFL Oyster with railcard discount.

    Definitely a loophole they can cancel a train you've booked for therefore make you late and get out of delay repay

    Unable to Collect Tickets - Says wrong card but is correct card

    Just to update, on my 2nd attempt at calling TPE I managed to get through to a helpful chap called Ross who seemed to think it should have automatically been set to any card for chase but wasn't for some reason. Fortunately he was able to change my bookings to any card allowing me to collect...

    Unable to Collect Tickets - Says wrong card but is correct card
