I have been using the Thames & branches for ages and very time I try to get through the barriers at London Paddington it doesn't go through the barriers. For a while until last Saturday it wouldn't go through Reading station barriers either. It came as a shock that all three of us got through without it rejecting are perfectly legitimate ticket's.
What doesn't help is that all the station staff who are completely useless don't know what ticket it is and that its valid there. And if you are going for HST's which there wont be for much longer they seem to struggle to notice that you are going through the barriers all day and not recognise you and look at the tickets to say and take there time over it to see what it says.
