So I always take things like this in the attack, not necessarily with the intention of following through, but with the intention of giving them something to distract themselves with.
The train company concerned is clearly harassing you. This is illegal.
You might consider asking them to provide an undertaking not to do so, adding that if they will not you will seek an injunction to prevent it?
It could be in fairly basic terms you could ask them to agree to a consent order undertaking :
- not to withdraw valid tickets because other more expensive tickets that are also valid are available
- not to delay you at barriers when you present a valid ticket
- not to threaten you with prosecution in respect of using valid tickets
Etc.
Refusal would look bad.
I would also seek a token sum for costs and damages; say £100.
You absolutely could, if you were so minded, make such an application to court. They'd have absolutely no way of knowing of you were going to or not.
