I visit Brum a couple of times a month and at least half the time the ticket barriers reject my ticket, sometimes it's on arrival, other times it's on departure, it doesn't seem to matter where I've purchased my ticket, on board my local stopper, at my local station, over the counter or from the TVM, or from the TVM at Manchester Piccadilly, still the same result, very annoying when It's busy.Strange thing is when the return ticket has been rejected it still operates the barrier at my local station, Anyone got any ideas why this is happening?
Another thing I have noticed, the barriers at Brum don't "eat" your ticket when your journey is complete.
