Yes there does. Otherwise it will risk falling foul of (for example) unfair contract terms rules.

Curious to see the legal basis for this.

Did you get that from AI? It’s inaccurate in several respects.

This isn't correct. Oyster cards can be invalid for exit even if cleared to enter, for example if they were hotlisted but had dropped off the locally stored list because of non-use. In the past, exit was also denied for lack of OEP when needed. Other options I'm aware of being used are "visa...

I can't find any article specifying the mechanism used to ban him, but two possibilities that came to mind were The ban is a condition of his suspended sentence, like the unpaid work. Breaching this is not an offence in and of itself, but would enable HM Probation Service to initiate breach...

They may raise a question, but they do not beg a question. 8-) It seems he may have had a Z1-2 Travelcard with JCP discount loaded to his smartcard. I cannot imagine it would be logistically feasible to reject these at London Bridge.

You still can on Southeastern.

Bearing in mind the Consumer Rights Act would also cap compensation for poor performance of the service at the amount paid for a ticket, I think the question of someone claiming the value of a full return ticket on the outbound leg plus something on the return leg being capped at the total paid...

I have little confidence in the industry being able to make such a credit system work, although once GBR is fully deployed, that may change. It would not at all surprise me if this happened.

You will not be going to prison so put that out of your head. How long ago was it that you were stopped by an officer in person?

The government is looking to remove 15 minute Delay Repay as part of GB Rail transition. A retrograde step in my opinion. Delay Repay 15 is in use by the majority of TOCs and provides a better incentive to keep journeys to time. If there is a concern about the administrative burden of handling...

Did you scan the ticket to enter Leicester station, or to leave? How did you pass through the ticket gates if they rejected your ticket?

£135 is a relatively standard costs amount for non-CPS prosecutors to claim on a case that goes to court and is dealt with on the first occasion. As a solicitor must be involved in authorising the charges.

There are a lot of different season ticket ID card formats and no central database, so no ticket seller is able to check whether a particular number is valid or not. It is, but the one you purchased required a photocard, not a "digital ID", to be valid. Railcards are not free, they cost £35...

Normal procedure on ordering compensation would be that District Judge Tempia will have made a collection order and either an attachment of earnings order or a deduction from benefits order. The latter order is self explanatory. The former order allows for HMCTS staff to take a range of actions...

Probably not, but the LU POMs at the underground station nearby will sort you. As yorkie states, it is not TfL's policy to refund extra contactless fares incurred in situations like this. There's no scenario where you'd pay £16.90 though; the Z1-6 daily cap is £16.30. Final option coming to...

In the unlikely event that a Compulsory Ticket Area is in play here, it should be noted that there is no penalty available for a breach of National Rail Byelaw 17. (A court could order compensation and costs, however.)

Your claim is for a refund of the LNER ticket, as rerouting, and DelayRepay of 100% of the price of the Lumo ticket having arrived more than 60 minutes late. Both parts of the claim go to Lumo. I can see you are already aware that you may well have difficulty with your claim for the cost of the...

If we're talking about incidents in August and the court hearing is in March, TfL won't be able to look further at anything, as they'll be out of time to prosecute.

My wife had an Avanti claim rejected relating to a service in late November. She was travelling from London to Birmingham Intl on a Glasgow service that was diverted due to a meltdown in Rugby and skipped stops up to Wolverhampton. Avanti are claiming the service ran only 7 minutes late, which...
