I suspect they could maybe - but I can't see you have much other grounds to appeal on and you are close to the deadline to submit one IIRC.This is great @John Palmer , thank you for you detailed research. While at no point did I specify I wanted the journey on the penalty fare to travel to London Blackfriars, he did ask me to fill in a form on his iPad with my intended station.
Could they argue against the appeal on this basis?
@WesternLancer appreciate your contribution to this too.
It's basically a way to not tell you that you would have been within your rights to say (as I understand it) that you would get off at the next stop, legitimise your ticket (buy the correct one or charge your phone). But it seems standard way of doing things to ask the passenger where they are travelling to (as opposed to saying the ticket is invalid, do you want a new one to your intended destination, or a new one to the next station where you can then get off and start again) - or this is how it seems to me.
Happy to be corrected by other forum members
