    Is this fare evasion or providing false information?

    This entire experience has left such a bitter taste in my mouth.

    Is this fare evasion or providing false information?

    Thanks everyone. I will be sending the letter tomorrow. I can't believe they expect people to handwrite on the reverse of the letter. What century do they think it is?! I have already typed a letter but may just transfer it to the back...

    Is this fare evasion or providing false information?

    Thanks for your reply. The thing is, he was adamant he take the address on my license which I am moving out from so if the letter takes weeks like you say I won't reliably receive it as it is a rental. If I did write to Northern what do you suggest I say?

    Is this fare evasion or providing false information?

    I arrived at my local station and upon arrival I saw a Northern member of staff outside and asked if I could buy a ticket on the train as I was having trouble with the mobile app. They said yes, so even though the station had a ticket machine and office I boarded the train (mistake number 1) and...
