My railcard is in date

Thanks folks for your help. I rang the number today and spoke to a very lovely lady who assurred me it was ok as long as I was co operative. She said she cannot guarantee the output but I will be required to pay the difference and possibly explain the address situation. But she appreciated me...

I probably worded that incorrectly, I mean if they feel the innocent and easy mistake I have made is due a fine then I shall pay it to bring this to an end. I will not argue that case as that is the procedure and policy. However yesterday, I was in a rush with several shopping bags, I bought a...

Ok thank you for your advice. I am happy to pay the fine if that is what it comes to but I am more worried about having a criminal record.

Please could you explain. Will I just be able to pay a fine? I did have a ticket just the wrong type

I purchased it from a machine, but I thought I posted in a previous post that I wasn't sure of the time, I had around 7 bags and heard the train being called. I just powered through the process and paid. Then ran for my train. It does state on the website that you can pay on the train the...

Hi Thanks both for your reply. I left the platform went under the tracks to the exit. I could hear them shouting tickets and railcards please. I then went to provide my ticket and railcard. The first inspector didn't say anything but simply asked me to speak to his colleague. I spoke to him...

I had a valid off peak ticket but I was travelling during the wrong time. I had only bought it 10 minutes previous at Picadilly. They also stopped another traveller who had a similar issue. I had a railcard but that is in date. They didn't hesitate in asking for my details. I'm quite upset and...

Yes, I had a ticket. But it should have been anytime not off peak.

Hi I got stopped today leaving Levenshulme station as I returned from Manchester picadilly because I had an off peak ticket. It was a general mistake as I believed it to be half 4 and my local train where I grew up and where my parents live there is no evening peak time. I got a 16 04 service...
