Hey guys, new to this forum so I hope I'm posting in the correct place.
This month I forgot to show my tickets on two occasions (I left them at work, stupid, I know.) I was assured by the enforcement officers that I could dispute these claims and will be fine if I actually did have valid tickets. I sent scans of my tickets for both days to merseyrail enforcement. We have been back and forth a lot but I've basically been given the ultimatum to pay £100 for each incident or "court costs £150 x2, a fine of £100, the fares avoided, plus a victim surcharge of £32. You would also receive a criminal conviction." if I lose a court case.
Both journeys were return tickets from Liverpool Limestreet to Formby.
Can anyone give me any advice? Is this a case that I could win?
