Just thought I'd let you know that I received a letter today, along with the £80 cheque returned! They cashed the £2.30 cheque and changed the penalty to a 'Formal Warning' after 'careful considering of my correspondence' they were prepared to take the 'extremely lenient step of dealing with...

Oxford Road I boarded.... Does this make much difference as I had no intention when I boarded of travelling past Disley, as this was my intended station stop?

Letter drafted, sending two cheques with the slightest of hope they may have some sort of sympathy! Ha Just to also note though, which I've just realised on scanning my traincard, the alleged offence (of travelling from New Mills to Whaley without paying) is the same day in which I bought my...

Yeah, well Oxford Road.... May send the letter along with 2 cheques and see if anything (probably v.unlikey!) comes of that...

Yeah, been good to get you guy's input on the situation, I had thought on the latter, but getting all the evidence after realising would sort of proof would be needed, could be time consuming & nothing could actually prevail! Lesson learnt and alarm to be set on phone everyday 5 mins before...

My closest gym (at the time, now actually closed!) was in Disley, so all worked well with either going before/after work en route to/from train station and meant saved cash on train fare as I would be driving that way anyways. Whaley to Manchester 7 day season ticket is (after just having a...

I drive 3 miles to save £15 a week on a weekly ticket, I didn't wait for the next train, just went home and got a lift to get my car, all in all I'm just contemplating paying it, less hassle and I'll just have to learn the hard way from falling asleep on the way home from work! Was kust that...

I couldn't be sure on that, I was never asked to show my ticket whilst on board either way. The station I ended up at yes, it closest to where I live, I then had to get a lift to pick my car up that station in which I had got on at in the morning. To my knowledge, and from speaking to people...

Hi all, Today I received an £80 fixed penalty plus the £2.30 fare for the part of the journey I did not have a valid ticket for. Basically, I had a valid weekly traincard (still have it), fell asleep on the train, missed my stop, and ended up 2 stops down the line, in my village, but my car...
