Hello, I was wondering if you could help me out...
On Saturday morning I was returning home from a night out in London. I was caught for supposedly not having a valid ticket upon on my person but I knew that I had bought one. They tried to issue me with a penalty fare but I refused. To begin with I refused to give my details/sign but eventually did after having spoken to my mother.
After the incident I had a friend pick me up and we discovered amongst my old train tickets the correct valid train ticket and the receipt from my payment on card.
On the penalty fare slip it states a charge of £39 but I am under the impression that this is not actually double the single fare from London Paddington to Reading.
It also states that I had 'no ticket' as the reason for the penalty.
Any help about how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.
