Hello, my partner's mother has been caught by an undercover TfL officer for regularly using her husband's 60+ London Oyster photo card to travel on the Tube. She will rightly have to own up as it's not her card. I don't know how long she has been using the card, but it would not be a recent thing. The husband lives elsewhere and has only come back briefly twice last year to visit.
She has received a letter regarding the matter and will have to admit to the offence. My questions:
She has received a letter regarding the matter and will have to admit to the offence. My questions:
- Does she only need to fill in personal details on the top (name, address etc) if pleading guilty? It is this form: https://www.reeds.co.uk/personal-law/fare-evasion-solicitors/tfl-letter-censored-2/.
- I have read it is very likely TfL will prosecute. What will the likely costs be as a result of prosecution for someone has committed the offence multiple times?
- Will the husband lose his card as a result of the prosecution? I imagine he would, regardless of whether he knew or not that his wife was using it.
