  1. They have taken the money this morning, its gone from my account and cleared.End of matter, thank god.NEVER AGAIN, its too stressful.Everyone, dont fare dodge or try and think you can get away with it, its not worth it and too damn stressful when u get caught, even if i was innocent on something C2c accused me off, I still did wrong on one occasion and have paid the penalty for it with a big charge.
  2. at no point was i ever cautioned by the inspector , i was just handed a piece of paper which said it.
  3. I handed it on the 28th july at 5.20pm. I didnt get a receipt as the women just took it and dissapeared and then i saw her hand it too another man and they just talked but I didnt see them open the letter.I handed in at Benfleet station at the Ticket Office as this is the address for it anyway
  4. I have paid my fine by Chq as requested for the full amount.However the money is still in my bank account and i have rang my bank and they haven't cashed it.I cant ring C2C.Do i write another letter.I handed it to the station by Hand to the Department on Benfleet station or do i just wait as it can take time.
  5. Letter saidWithout pre-judice we will accept payment of £293.50 by 31 st July without further action.and then some jargon as this is up for going to the courts , all correspondence in writing only.
  6. I have paid my debt today of £293.50 .Can someone confirm what "without pre-judice" means in these circumstances. It was on my letter.
  7. Thank you for your replies and i appreciate them. Very helpful and i respect your comments. Thank for your help. I will pay the fine from C2c for fares and admin fee and learn from my experience and never do it again.
  8. They are a dreadful network.Sky high fares in proportion to rest of uk and other networks.Overcrowded trains, unclean toilets. uncomfortable seating.Train delays. Rude staff and poor customer service.I have been told by a solictor and other parties that under no circumstances can a rail ticket be used to incriminate against anyone apart from a season ticket after the date has expired, without BTP involvement. I had other tickets on me to/from Benfleet where I worked the previous week. On day in question i worked in London and thats where i went wrong. I purchased a ticket to basildon instead of Barking.For this is have a fine of £293.50 - very high - as C2c have assumed I have committed more offences. I have not.I could go to court to fight this but i have still committed one offence, so i would still end up in trouble.
  9. My bank no longer send out Chq books. Benfleet station is where C2c Rail Prosecution is based, thats why i went there. So not silly at all.I have rec'd a further letter stating i can pay now by 31st July - im going to do this, its not worth the hassle and going to court.C2c have lied in the letter and made asumptions which i showed a solictor and they wouldnt get away with it although i have done wrong in the 1st instance and would still get punished.The inspector took old tickets away from me which were used accordingly, I have been told that under no circumstances was the inspector allowed to take these with out BTP involvement as it was nothing to do with these. The fare C2c is totally not relevant to the crime as they have assumed i have done more wrong. I could go to court and fight but i still would end up with a criminal record as i have done wrong on one day only.C2c shouldnt lie or make assumptions on anyone. its not acceptable in 2011. The sooner C2c lose their franchise the better.
  10. I want to pay and ive been awake all night and i can pay by next Friday,but im very upset that I never got the first letter.I have handed in a letter personally to Benfleet station telling them this yesterday.Its a lot of money, but Its what I deserve and I Just want to get it out of the way.I called a helpline and they 7 days payment is unfair and it should have been 21 days, which I would have accepted as they have stated they want it by post and do not accept debit cards. They also stated the amount they want is high and if went to court, they would get less. I just want to get it clear b4 that stage.If I had received the first letter, I would have paid it by now and moved on and learnt my lesson.Stressed to the eyeballs
  11. Hi there, On June 20th 2011, i was caught without the correct ticket and was spoken to by 2 inspectors who took down my details. I offered to pay and the penalty fare but they said that was not available to me and C2C would write to me. I have very upset and distraught after this as I know I have done wrong. I have been awaiting a letter and I have phoned C2C twice but was told to await a letter as there was a delay and they were short-staffed. Today I received a letter dated 14th July 2011 and it stated 2nd LETTER. I have never received a 1st Letter. They want me to pay £293.50 now by 21st July 2011. i cant pay by then, so i have handwritten a letter to them this morning and handed it into Benfleet Station, stating I have never received the 1st letter, nor was I offered the chance to pay a penalty fare and if they still want me to pay the £293.50 to allow me until the end of the month at least. They will not accept phone calls, nor will they accept debit cards. Only cheques and postal orders. My bank no longer has cheques books as they were going to be defunct, yet C2C do not accept chqs on the station. I have done wrong, I know, but the amount is high , yet i dont want it to any further, i am willing to pay whatever is required but it is a lot and I have been given less then a week to pay. Is there anything else I can do? Please help, I am deeply stressed and upset.
