Need Advice on Fare Dispute Chiltern Railways

[2025help]

Hi,

It’s been more than 60 days that I haven’t received any response. Can anyone please tell me if I’d get an email or another letter this time?
Thanks in advance.

I expect it'll be a letter. Given that we've had Easter and the recent Bank Holidays, and I believe Chiltern has a backlog at the moment, I'd leave it a little longer before chasing.

Thank you! I had sent them the reply on 25th March and its the 25th of June today. Given that it has already been 90 days, should I follow up? The incident occurred on 31st of December and I am afraid there’s not much time left for it to be 6 months, I am very anxious now as I am not sure if they sent out a reply or not, I have been checking my mailbox everyday. In case they prosecute me post 30th of June, I don’t know what I will do. I cannot afford a criminal record. What should I do now?

Do nothing - they are just six days away from being unable to serve prosecution papers to the court. Do you really want to remind them, just before the deadline?

Don’t do anything, it’s not in your interest to remind them of thier potential oversight especially this close to the 6 month prosecution limit
