I need to travel to Enfield Lock (Zone 6) from Vauxhall (Zone 2). The weekly travelcard would cost me £36.40. However I've been told that, because my journey (on the Victoria line) going past stations in Zone 1, I would also need to pay for this - which would cost me around £53 a week. This is...
Ultimately she could have done but as her mother is abroad at the moment I felt responsibility to take an active role. As she was at work and comes home when their offices close, I was given the opportunity by the prosecutor to speak on her behalf as an alternative. I was free, so I thought why not
Summary: The matter has been settled out of court.
Background: I called the LOROL this morning with a question; in references to fare evasion on TFL, it is cited that the individual would be have a 21 day window period to pay and that they would be sent reminders. I cannot recall us receiving...
True, but I don't think that profile is compatible with someone spending close to £200 in tickets in three months (which we have documented evidence of) like her. Her travel expenses are more than covered with her maintenance fees as a University student; she has absolutely no reason to evade a...
The London Bridge journey happened somewhere between Jan and Feb 2012. This particular offence happened early April. She cant recall if she paid by debit card for the original travel card or not, she is headed for the bank to check if they can find any record of that. But then again even if we...
This is what she has told me. This is how she generally pays for her tickets.
She has an 18+ Student Oyster Card. She goes to the train station to a customer service representative (or ticket master I suppose, they often stand next to the turnstiles). She presents her 18+ card and they tell her...
Would anyone with experience be willing to proof read a letter to be sent to the Prosecutors Office? I don't think I have a PM inbox. Ideally I would prefer if we did this via email.
Thank you
1. Sometimes turnstiles are open during particular periods of the day/evening on many stations. I can confirm this and I'm sure other frequent users of railway stations in London can as well. She explained that it was open on this particular day. Had it been closed, she would have attempted to...
Yes, this is truly tragic. This is an actual genuine case here otherwise I wouldn't have bothered with all this. I'm sorry, but what I was referring to in regards to 'source' was when ralphchadkirk said the following
Whilst your cited information was interesting, I don't think it pertained to...
She has sent me this photo of one of the documents. It was the only document that had a reference to any potential fine.
I will be very grateful for that. Can anyone who is willing to proof read such a letter PM me please, preferably with your email address so you can get notification of my...
My mistake. If she is convicted she will be fined.
I do not know. She was going from Clapham Junction to Willesden Junction. On the letter, the Prosector's Office is registered to London Overground Rail Operations Ltd. Are they a separate entity? I don't know.
That isn't reasonable at all...
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with this abbreviation?
What I'm curious about is why was she not offered the chance to pay for the penalty via a letter? It seems vindictive and disproportionate to effectively plaster someone with a criminal record because they could not pay the fare there and then...
I am writing to you today on behalf of my sister. She normally pays for a monthly travelcard (Oyster, we have documentation to prove this) but on this particular occasion she went onto the train believing she had the weekly (non-oyster) travelcard she had purchased a few days prior. The...
