hello,
I can see that the city thameslink has caused lots of discussion in the past. So apologies for starting again - however - I recently started using the train again (after a motorbike crash), when I use the ticket machines at the station (AFK) to CTK i get a fare of £137.60 inc HS1 for a 7day ticket. However when I aks at the ticket office I get told that I need to buy a supplement to get me to ctk from st Panc. This to me seems wrong, as the first ticket I bought ( I crashed on the way in to London ) was from the ctk ticket machine for 137.60 inc HS1! How on earth am I expected to get to afk if it doesn't expect me to use the FCC trains... Also in doing some more investiagtions if I pick blackfriars as my final destination it's actually £1 cheaper.. again how am i meant to get there... I am not trying to dodge paying any fares at all, but refuse to believe that one system is more right than the other (ticket office vs machine) just becuase one talks back and tells me its wrong (I would also think the underlying data is the same?)...
Many thanks...
