Thanks for the replies. I will go to a ticket office for renewal. I hope they will let me renew for the discounted rate as well. Can I do this next week but delay the start date of the new season to start on 31st December?

I have an annual season ticket on South Western Railway which I shortly want to renew. I have two questions about it. 1. The credit limit of my credit card is less than the cost of the ticket. Is it possible to split the payment so I use two forms of payment? I.e. One credit and one debit card...

I don't really understand why the advice is not to travel tomorrow. Why will there be delays tomorrow which is now 8 hours away from the first morning trains. It's already been 16 hours since the derailment. How long does it take to re-rail a train and move it out of the way?

If I want to use a smart card on a bus in London, will they have the reader to be able to check I have a valid travel card on my SWT smart card? The website says you can do it but wanted to explicitly check. Also what happens when I want to get off at a stop covered by my ticket (break of...

Thanks for the info. Do you know since when this was the case? I asked the same question last December on these forums and people told me you couldn't do it.

Please correct me if I am wrong on this but this is how I think it would work for me on my route with South West Trains (SWT). Start = Ash Vale End = London terminals (London Waterloo) Including Travel Card zones 1-6 Route = Any permitted I just renewed my annual paper season ticket for...

Good point. My own Season ticket does indeed start outside the London Zone and has a Travelcard included. I guess these would be "worth" more so to speak. The penalties would be interesting to know, as I bet the fine is less than a lot of Season Tickets cost to buy which would further make...

Yes a paper ticket. Wow. That's quite shocking. I suspect many people do attempt to use them upon finding lost tickets then? Hence the "security" of a photocard ID with any valuable paper season ticket of a week or more. How much security does that add though if you travel on routes and times...

I was thinking of something today... I handed in a lost Season Ticket which still had almost a full year remaining on it. Someone had left it on the train. It would have cost thousands to buy. I obviously would never condone this or attempt it, but assume I did not hand it in and decided to...

lol thanks for that. It works at all tube stations I have used so that's fine at least. I believe I may have had the same problem at other London terminals. i.e. When I went from London Victoria to Clapham. I can't remember if it let me through the gate or if again I should be allowed to. I...

I have a season ticket from Ash Vale to London Waterloo including Zones 1-6 (Travelcard). Many times I have used my ticket to get off at stops in between (on the main line) when on nights out etc. But it never works in the machines. I always have to show it to a guard or platform staff and they...

Cheers guys. So sorry final question.... I'm paying over £4000 per year and I still have to use paper ticket on the underground? There is no way to get an oyster and get my ticket loaded on to it and then the paper ticket changed to just cover the Ash Vale to Waterloo section? Cheers :) Happy...

Thanks. And as for the "gold card" thing? Can I just buy this anywhere and still get the gold card. Is a gold card simply the annual ticket itself or is it an actual separate card? Im confused.

I need to buy an annual travel card online within the next day or so. This is from Ash Vale to London Waterloo including zones 1-6. If I buy online, will it be a paper ticket? I want to "buy the ticket online or in a gold card area" to get the annual gold card benefit but I would rather they...
