    I can confirm that I had an off-peak return, usable within a month of the outward journey on GTR trains.

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    I have absolutely no reason to believe I used it after collecting, I can't remember why I was at Kings cross on this date, but I have a collection ticket dated the 10th for this journey (matching ToD CTR). The outbound journey was on the 20th, so I don't believe I was on any trains on the 10th...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    I don't believe so - if he's saying it was used on the 19th there are some real issues, my outward journey was on the 20th.

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    I paid a total of £26.65 for both the outbound and return trips. £40 seems a ridiculously high amount, I have never paid anywhere near that amount. I will seek further advice at the forum you have advised, thank you. In my mind it seems like I should easily be able to appeal and re-open as I...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    I will list everything I have received, and when they are dated, unless I state otherwise I will have received them within a few days of the date. Incident occurred on 03/04/16 "Notice of intention to prosecute" dated 04/05/2016, asking for my description of the events that occurred. I...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Yes, I can post the sheet when I get home. I don't have a date to appear in court yet, not since the first one which I was not informed of ( or the letter got lost in the post..) this whole ordeal has been a bit of a mess really. Currently appealing to re-open the case so I can actually go to court

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Just had a quick google at solicitors rates, and given I'm in London and these are only guidelines, I don't know how I would be able to afford it.. Obviously I don't want a criminal record, how much would it affect me? Would all future employers be able to see?

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Oh yes, sorry, it's great northern not great western. Sorry, stupid error on my part - and probably evidence that I need someone else to look over everything.. How much would a solicitor likely set me back, I understand it would be better but I'm not sure I can afford it. Or if I won and was...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Posted as an attachment - regarding the date, there have been some issues with the courts and me not receiving court summons and the case is going to be re-opened. I only came across this forum yesterday otherwise I would've asked these questions a long time ago. Regarding the break of...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Okay, so because I held a ticket that was invalid, they are unable to issue me a penalty fare and it has to go to courts for them to make a claim? Sorry, not entirely sure what is relevant information and is not. The only reason I can think they may have asked was because it was two...

    Allegations by GTR that ticket was previously used

    Hey everyone, Looking for a little advice on what is now a court case. On the return portion of a journey I was making with Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR), I was approached by a ticket inspector and he checked my ticket but unusually asked if it had been used. It was an anytime return within...
