I have previously been stopped when exiting a station because I tapped out incorrectly due to card clash , on that instance I payed an out of court settlement of £300.
However I have a court summon for a different case in February I was rushing I had £2.80 on my card 16+ at Greenford station train was coming so I tapped and squeezed through the barrier because I thought I tapped it correctly and it took my money , so I squeezed through and the revenue inspector was watching me , I explained that I was going to hospital and I had sufficient amount on my card to travel 2 stops.
Anyway I've got s court summon which is stressing me out .
It's under offence BYELAW 17 - no person shall enter a compulsory ticket area without valid ticket.
I tried getting an out of court settlement but it's my second time and they rejected my offer of £500.
To put simply I want to become a teacher in future will this effect me , will it turn up on the CRB checks ?
Because I know teaching kids they do enhanced checks
I know it was a stupid mistake but it happend and would really want some information on this.
