Hello, this is my first time posting here
This morning I was travelling to my internship from Berrylands to Vauxhall as usual. To save some money, I have stupidly purchased ticket for a shorter journey. I know I have no excuse.
I was caught at the Vauxhall block and I provided all the information they needed.
Now I am waiting for the letter of prosecution and to be honest I am very worried, because I still want to apply for citizenship here in a few years.
Now I have a few questions:
1. Would it most likely be an out of court settlement? Or would they prosecute me for fraud (because I knowingly purchased a cheaper ticket).
2. I know they are entitled to check my online purchase record , and I would be happy to pay the fares. But how likely would they do it?
3. What should I include in the reply to their letter, and is there anything/ word that I can absolutely not use?
I will definitely not do it again, and I understand now the consequences of my actions. I am sincerely asking for advice for the best possible outcome for this.
Thank you very much!
