That could be easily cleared up I guess. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Actually, thinking of it now. I agree with you. There's no way I'd get off that easy

I hope not. I spoke with the TFL agent and they assured me that nothing would happen. Are they really going to charge two minors? One considerably younger...

The answer is no because that is petty and irrelevant. And this has been resolved now

Going on the train and spending money on my oyster without permission could be a form of theft. Especially when I have only a little money and,my,travel relies on having that,exact amount of money(as well as paying,for a replacement). I would say that is splitting hairs but it seems akin to...

Ah yeah I can see how people can be confused. None of the explanations are mutually exclusive. He asked for my oyster card. I said no. We argued for a while. I put in my headphones and started ignoring him. He pulled my oyster out and,tossed,my wallet on me. I didn't go after him because I...

I hope it doesn't. I don't think I've flip-flopped. For all intents and purposes I gave it to him by letting him use it after he took it from my wallet.

I did. I told them it got confiscated due to my cousin using it and he said "no problem". 2) Yes, she knows all about it. 3) Finally, I'm never giving anyone my oyster card ever again. That was the first and last time

He took it (snatched it after a long argument about it and tossed,my wallet to me), I went "#&%@ it" and let him. So I guess I have it to him in that sense.

I did. I said it had both a 16 + discount,and dependant privilege on it. I've ordered a replacement anyway and,they said it was fine.

Yes it was. This has never happened before --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Btw, is the any chance of getting my oyster back New Post: I called them up and got issued a replacement. They said there's no problem and that they'd reinstate the discounts etc. I'm guessing...

He wasn't supposed to have my oyster. He had been badgering me all morning for it. He took it from my wallet and I forgot to r retrieve it. Then he got on a train to Barking,for,some reason. A 14 year old on a train without supervision and no one knowing where he was(a different matter entirely)

No not the prison sentence. I want my oyster back, that's all. Also, he wasn't supposed to be in the overground in the first place. He was supposed to be taking a walk to a pound shop or something(that's what he told us)

Works for London Underground. The dude was caught on the overground. I really just want to get off with a fine at most:(

I have. This is quite a quandary. Saying he took it without permission because he assumed it was a regular oyster and he doesn't live in London should,mitigate it right? Because that's true. I gave it to him in that I knew he had taken it but didn't go get it from him instantly. He's already...

If I call them up tomorrow and explain it can I get off with a fine? (Perhaps saying he took my oyster without permission). I'm really bummed about this.

Alright guys, here's an issue I just ran into. My cousin borrowed my oyster photocard which had both the 16+ discount and the employee dependant discount on it. I gave it to him reluctantly(that doesn't matter does it?), and he went on the overground and got caught. It was taken off him. Am I...

Hi dudes, I think you'll be glad to know that I've paid off the debt, leaving me a great deal poorer but much happier I think. I did notice two things though, my name was filled in incorrectly as well. My name is Allison but was spelt as Alison, hope that won't come back to haunt me? 2) Sorry...

You momsters, you didn't help me at all. How can you be so unfeeling, so inhuman, so....is what my emotional sides would love to say. Good thing I'm a bit rational. Thanks for all your help. I realize that I'll now have to look for money to pay for it, but as long as I stay on the right side...

I didn't intend to not tap in my oyster, I didn't even realize I hadn't tapped it in till I was already on the train, and there was no way undo this. Even if I had decided to go back I would still have been fined or made to pay the penalty fare, which I can't afford even if I wanted to. And...

I've had two appeals so far, this is my third. The journey was between Crouch Hill station and Harringay Green Lanes on the London Overground, it costs 80p for me on my 16+ oyster card and is just one stop. The problem is on that day it was raining, and the train arrives every 15 minutes. When I...
