Alright thanks, I'll send you a draft of the letter tomorrow if that's okay, its getting a bit late now and I have to get up early. I actually do have an Oyster card, I don't know why I chose to use paper tickets instead.

So am I in the clear here? Paying the excess ticket fare is understandable and I see no problem with that, but I obviously don't want this to go to court and end up with me having to pay a lot. Any advice on what I should write in the response letter?

It was £5.80 for a return as you stated. That's great to hear, so shall I just write back stating they have made a mistake? Obviously I'll also explain why I tried to exit at Sutton. Also they won't mind if I attach a typed out letter will they? My handwriting is quite poor haha. Thank...

Sorry bb21 your correct, I lost the email but I just realized I can check the booking through the website and it was NOT VIA LONDON. Ticket says ADULT FULL FARE is that what you mean by type of fare? Hi Mike, Your correct it was NOT VIA LONDON, and I was suppose to change at Herne Hill...

To the best of my memory it just stated South Bromley to ST Helier via any route (or something to that effect), I'm not too familiar with train tickets, what do you mean by fare type? There was no discount applied and price was £6 I think? Sorry for such a late reply

Hi and thank you, I bought the ticket online from The Train Line, I think it was one of those day return cards? Yes you are right, it was from South Bromley not West as I stated above :S

Do you think there is no chance of disputing it? If they are using the offence, 'Entering a train for the purpose of travelling without a ticket entitling travel', then its clearly not right for them to try put a fine on me
