The answer hasn't changed since the last time you asked ;)

You can easily use them at Farringdon. Show it to the TfL staff at the gateline who will just open a gate manually. Of course it's not as easy as a gateline with scanners attached, but it's not like it's impossible.

Sorry, I had meant within the Oyster and Contactless areas rather than within the Zones 1-6/Travelcard area. I'll make that clearer.

keyGo, the pay-as-you-go system, has always supported the full range of day fares available as far as I know. It will charge a Day Travelcard fare if you take multiple services inside Zones 1-6, and within the wider PAYG area it will match the Contactless/Oyster rate too. It has not been, and...

Although, for this particular example, a passenger could use GTR's keyGo system with a Railcard linked to obtain a discount on the Contactless PAYG fares. As long as they're not using EMR. Simple, isn't it?!

The credits are for "high demand" services (Eurostar, TGVs when beyond the cheaper fee tier and all international services, some sleeper services in seats only). Services that don't require credits don't have a limit on the reservations you can make (well, except the fair use policy). I still...

Even better when it's the wrong expiry date and CVV code too. With no 3DS. It's incredible.

No, tickets issued to/from "London Underground(/DLR) Zones [...]" are valid to use those portions of the validity at any time of day. When it was permitted to add on the London Underground validity to any ticket (before the TOCs decided that was a good deal, and therefore passengers could not...

I am sure that's still the case, and it's just a quirk of how the trains are set up in the reservations system rather than how it works on the ground.

There's a lot of fantastic examples of this on a Dutch channel, run by a traffic police department: https://www.youtube.com/@VerkeerspolitieDenHaag They film POV videos of some escorts -- typically ambulance escorts for things like emergency blood or organs between hospitals -- and upload them...

I agree with the other members' posts. Ignore the email. Do not reply. Do not engage with any future emails. They may send more emails, threatening further action. If you are worried, please reply to this thread first and not the email. You might want to ask your son about this, because West...

For Caledonian Sleeper, there's not much extra to do than the unique refund terms. The tickets are pretty straightforward, actually. I believe there might be issues with RARS and how the coaches are stored for the sleeper (e.g., the service has more than one coach with the same letter), but...

You need a separate smartcard for each of these schemes, ordered from the operator responsible for managing the scheme.

This is the thread you are thinking of, I believe: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/tfl-staff-pass-misuse-on-ga.266218/page-2#post-6884246 In that case: The thread also has copies of correspondence which they sent to Greater Anglia, which you may want to review and take some light...

That's great, but I have a strong feeling the Rail Ombudsman will do the exact same! Best of luck.

This has made it into RAIL. https://www.railmagazine.com/news/trainpal-accused-of-encouraging-unlawful-behaviour-with-social-media-adverts

Worth noting that the promo doesn't appear to stack with Railcard discounts.

Ah, the Oval approach! Remove the good value fares, because the tendered system doesn't support it!

My reply will be the same as @Fawkes Cat's. We don't know if they'll pursue it further. As @AlterEgo has also said, they won't be able to prove it was you who travelled with the ticket and received the penalty fare, even if you bought the ticket. I would personally still just keep quiet and...

Maybe this is just a good way to silently remove the evening tickets entirely after the Christmas offer ends?
