    RPI asking for too much information

    Sorry I should expand. I was referring to complaining generally, not specifically about being asked the wrong question. Typically it’s been financial institutions that have felt my wrath, due to doing totally the wrong thing, failing to do what they said they would and plain outright lying To...

    RPI asking for too much information

    You have no right whatsoever to ask to see my booking/journey history. You are dealing with the here and now, not something from 3 weeks ago - that would be down to Fraud investigation or whoever to deal with based on information you pass to them. The offence you are dealing with may be a one...

    RPI asking for too much information

    You are not required to give your NI number, occupation, inside leg measurement or anything else to a RPI other than the basic info they can demand. I would never hand over my phone or any other information. I’d simply give my details and nothing more. It’s a data slurping exercise to gather...

    Alstom derby great gathering 1st-3rd August 2025

    If you managed to get tickets into the basket but didn’t successfully check out, use the direct ticket link provided earlier in this thread and you should be able to see the basket and check out. I just managed it and it worked. With the sales halted the system is clearing and allowing...

    Alstom derby great gathering 1st-3rd August 2025

    Quite simply Morton’s can’t cope with an event of this size. It should have gone to a proper ticketing agent like AXS etc

    Alstom derby great gathering 1st-3rd August 2025

    Total shambles, I got to pay and the site died on me. Useless. Morton’s can’t handle this type of volumeevent ticketing. Should have used a real ticket reseller.

    Discussion on the Impact of a Conviction on Career Prospects

    The bottom line is this - if a criminal conviction is going to harm your future prospects then why take the risk and take actions that leave you open to criminal prosecution? Buy a correct ticket and have nothing to worry about, or fare dodge by whatever means and hope you don’t get caught. When...

    Ticket would be an Advance Single, booked via The Train Line and collected from the machine at Barmouth prior to travel. Would it be possible to collect the ticket from any TVM? the passenger is going to Barmouth by car, but needs to return via train, hence the enquiry.

    Barmouth to Reading, Berkshire

    OK route and ticketing experts, I need some help please. Need to get a 16 year old dragging a suitcase from Barmouth to Reading, Berkshire. Usual sources are suggesting Barmouth to Wolverhampton then change to a Cross Country to Reading. This is 1 change only. Journey is quite long and there is...

    Prosecuted with no evidence or details?

    The sole purpose of these interviews is to get you to incriminate yourself and provide the TOC with the evidence they don’t have so they can prosecute you. Others have suggested a written response asking for information and if I was in your shoes that’s what I would send. You are not obliged to...

    TFL child tickets travelling on adult fare using someone else’s contactless

    So, yesterday I had to take 2 children into London for A Day out. I have an Oyster card and I bought paper tickets from the TVM at Ickenham For the kids. When buying the tickets, the TVM informed me that it would be cheaper for the kids to use contactless and pay an adult fare (tickets were...

    Twyford, Berks to London, Sat 23rd April

    Didn’t know you could use contactless as I’m not familiar with that line. That may well be the way to go. Thanks.

    Twyford, Berks to London, Sat 23rd April

    2 adults need to go to London from Twyford, Berks. Ideal train out is the 09.49 to Paddington but want to come back on any train as their day out is fluid time wise. Oyster/contactless is available for use on the tube in London (2 or 3 journeys all in Zone 1 or Zones 1 and 2). Looking for...

    Should you inform your employer of being arrested?

    Start by reading your contract of employment and see what that says about notification of arrest. An arrest won’t show up on a DBS check, but the Americans ask about it when entering their country. Two sets of standards. A friend of mine was arrested twice for drink driving (2 separate...
