As part of my company's travel policy I have to use their online travel provider's website to book tickets which then get billed back directly to my company. I usually use Ticket On Demand to pick up at my local stations.
However, every time I do this at different stations and different TVM's, the tickets subsequently fail to operate the barriers at any station I go to. The stations I get on at have no entrance barriers so I don't get a chance to check this at my origin station.
Does anyone have any idea why this is or how I can fix it? It's not a massive problem if I am doing a single rail journey but if I need to cross London or use a travelcard it's a pain in the bum having to go to the manual gate each time. Interestingly, if I order in enough time to get the tickets posted out to me I have no issues.
