SWT-caught using husband season ticket
Apark replied to Apark's topic in Public transport (Trains, tubes and buses)
Hello all, An update: i received a letter from south western railway. They decided that on this occasion to deal with this matrer by reminding you of the following. It is an offence to board a train without a full and valid ticket appropriate for your journey. X I am relieved of course! But they ask the season ticket holder to contact the fraud investigation and duplicate office. My husband actually renew his season ticket as the old one was expired at the end of dec 2017. He just bought a new one rather than renewing the ticket as he didn't want getting a discount; apparently 5% off (£200+) and 10 free travel days would cause an extra issue. Why would they want him to contact him and what shall he say? Thank you -

Hmmm i wish i read it but just wanted to leave the area asap. An excuse but i have had a nora virus and just wanted to get home asap. I wont state this in the letter. Just hope the inspector only wrote down facts. -

Will they compare the note from the inspector with my story? I didn’t tell him anything but only facts, ie it is my husband ticket and i used it in the morning and intended to use in the evening by entering the platform using the ticket. I knew i did wrong and didn’t see the point of telling him excuses. I didn’t see what the inspector wrote -

He said it is not his job telling me what will happen...but gave me a card with his id with revenue protection written on it. He took all my details and took my husband season ticket. It has only one week left but he is wondering if he can renew... -

I told him my husband knew i have his ticket but didn’t mean he gave it to me. I have a text to prove if they are interested.. .i am not a native English speaker so I interpreted his question was asking me if he knew if i have his ticket and the answer was yes. He didn’t ask me many questions and didn’t give me any chance to say anything either -

When i arrived waterloo, i was planning to take 5;45 train then there’s a train home leaving in one minute. I just dashed to the platform but missed the train. Then I decided to leave the platform to see where the next train is and got stuck at the gate. Walked up the inspector and asked them to open the gate. My husband couldn’t believe how stupid i was and ended up telling them what happened all. But I cannot lie or you can put it i am stupid. I honestly didn’t think I would end up putting myself in this mess for being brutally honest. The inspector took all the details down and showed me the way out. There’s I bought my ticket home I said to the inspector my husband was aware of me having his ticket but i took his ticket without his consent. Only told him once i was on the train. It was my work Christmas party but I didn’t feel well ended up leaving work early. Wish i just went to the party but i have a nora virus now... arghhh -

Do you know what, i was not on the train in the evening. I went through and wanted to come out : no idea why and the gate didnt open and i asked the gate keeper to let me out. Technically i didnt use the ticket to get on the train. Should I mention this? -

Thanks for putting me straight. It was my normal day commute to london dashing to kids club and run to the station. I knew i was going to miss 8:12 train if i buy tickets, i just opened up my husband wallet and got on 8:12 train. And then in the evening, i was intending to use his ticket again to go home to be honest. It worked in the morning. Wish i just missed the train and got tickets. No words can describe how i feel especially as a mum raising a 4year old trying to teach her what’s good and bad behaviour. I dont deserve tell her to be a good girl for santa. -

Thank you dx. Try not to think too much but as you can see, i am widely awake 4am in the morning! I hope they would take a consideration that i was a season ticket holder up until the end of august. I decided not to renew but managed to work from home twice a week. Trains in august were just awful and now i got caught for using it as i rushed to get the morning train. Never mind -
I wont list all the details but i used my husband season ticket today and got caught. I stated he was aware of me having his ticket but i only told him this as i was on the train in the morning and got caught on the return journey home. Wish i was not so honest telling the truth but there i am, i shoulg have never took his ticket. I dont think it would look good having made a false journey once already plus it is a season ticket, plus the owner was aware of this. As you advised, i will await for the letter from swt but sigh,, , dont really wanting to end a year in this way but read all the posts related to fare persecutions on this site which help.. .just waiting for the letter
