Please could someone tell me if i would have a successful appeal.
Written letter to First Connect as below.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I started my journey with my Daughter from Highbury and Islington Station 30/05/12 @ 15:49 noticed my Oyster balance at the barriers which was £5.67, Boarded train to Finsbury Park Station exited Station then boarded W3 Bus to Crouch End Middle Lane, Where my Daughter had a dentist appointment.
Return journey home, Boarded W3 Bus @ 17:26 to Finsbury Park Station where they do not have barriers just touch in readers, touched in with my Oyster, heard beep proceeded to platform to get train to Highbury and Islington, exited train to leave station, Ticket inspectors were there, I produced my Oyster thinking I had sufficient fare on my Oyster whilst travelling with my Daughter. They stated I did not have valid fare on my Oyster, I was then fined £20.
Please note on penalty fine it states NO TICKET which was not the case, insufficient fare was on the card which I was not aware of.
My statement is as above and the reason I am appealing this is I believed I had sufficient fare on my Oyster.
I have never been fined in my life as I am an honest law abiding citizen, My Daughter was embarrassed as was I.
