My local station (chandler's ford) has had a yellow card reader for years. However the station is not shown by SWR as being valid for smartcards.
I asked in the ticket office last weekend and was told they thought the machines were going to be activated in the next few days.
Does anyone know if this is the case?
Additionally I know that 'southern' also offer smart cards but their coverage maps tend to indicate that they are not valid outside their region. Is this true? Or could I travel CFR-brighton using a smartcard (regular return)
Finally I assume the old 'SWT' smartcard still works fine? (I also have 'solent go')
Personally I would find mobile tickets or bank contactless / apple nfc so much easier!
