actually seems strange to me that you were not issued with paperwork by that member of staff. Other on here may know the procedure, but I thought you were supposed to be given some sort of no value ticket to allow you to complete your trip, whilst the thing considered erroneous is taken for evidence. But I must confess to not being sure of this.
Sorry for the confusion you’re right I did obtain a printed ticket to complete the journey. I was referring to a few posts I’ve read where the individual has had to sign something and paperwork given to them. Apologies for the confusion but I’m all over the place.
Aha - that helps to know. If you retained it at the end of your journey keep hold of it - if for no other reason any codes on it would identify the staff member who issued it - tho that would be recorded with the details of the time and date traveled, which you had already posted.
Conductor advised that the date had been altered I didn’t agree at all what happened is that I used a ball point pen that just didn’t work first time so went over the number to make it look visible.
Yes thankfully and I didn’t have to go into explaining things by letter just completed name address etc.... anyway many thanks again. Feel free to lock this thread up if you wish.
It’s done now but glad it is it’s just been added pressure with working through this.
Thanks for update - it does seem u have been unfairly treated but hope you are OK to some degree with sit'n. Good luck to you.
I got the standard letter and just completed it without adding any mitigation at all. This was due to me working as a key worker I just didn’t have time. It was accusing me under railways act probably the accusation of an altered ticket. I’ve now sent all papers and my account to a friend who’s a barrister so he’s going to help me with this and thankfully for nothing. I’ll update you
Thank you for providing an update and all the best to you in your complaint.
Thanks for this, i was going to let it all go and just pay up as I was busy working. However spoke to my friend who I’ve known for 20 plus years and knew he was in Law what I didn’t know is that his firm had moved into this area. He’s done all this for nothing as a partner which I’m grateful for. He’s very straight forward and said This happens all the time , scare tactics so yes he’s put something to my MP and he’s taking it from there. Thanks again for your interest. It makes you wonder how many just pay up for the peace and quiet.
well done and good result - I recalled this situation was esp stressful for you so nice to read you were able to pursue it with your friends help and secure recompense. Well done and good wishes to you.
