hello guys,
I bought a train ticket online for £30 from london to doncaster on www.eastcoast.co.uk for the 13.37pm, got to the station on time and picked up my ticket. But somehow missed it and got on the 13.51pm
I was given a fine of £120 which I sent a letter of appeal to the RPSS https://www.penaltyfares.co.uk which was rejected and I was asked to pay within 14days of dated.
I explained that I just finished my msc, job hunting and going through a divorce and cant afford the 14days, as I have a little girl, whom am supporting.
The last time, I got such a fine, I had to pawn my laptop to pay off, cost me £65 to retreive my laptop after 28 days.
What if I dont have the money ???
I know If I leave it and default I would incurr more charges and would destroy my credit ratings, so in my fustration am seeking advise on how to go about this
many thanks
