probably be a single justice Procedure case

can yo popup your begging letter please

 

there is no need to 100% assume OOC is dead yet.

 

[dx100uk]

if i were to be honest 

that is woefully lacking.

 

have a good read of a few threads here of like cases

and knock up a better personalised begging letter

 

post it here 1st .

 

 

 

 

[dx100uk]

i was more pointing toward your personal stuff of what happened and why you did it.

its good you didn't intimate number of uses and i suspect the org letter simply referred to one incident?

 

 

 

[dx100uk]

blue bit needs rewording , and you seriously need to stop relatedly apologising again and again through out the letter.

once at the top 

once at the end.

 

try this:

 

 

start it by saying

 

i thank you for your letter dated xxxx, it's contents are duly noted and very concerning to me.

 

Since my fatal mistake on (offence date) i have ensured i have always purchased valid tickets and now use a new oyster card and am taking extra special care of it. ( adapt if not the method now used). My life has also moved on in many other positive ways and having finished my college course i am happily now employed in my chosen career with a market leader as an apprentice in Cyber Security.

 

It Troubles me immensely to learn that my silly mistake by listening to my friends at college might lead to a criminal record that will destroy my present and any future prospects of employment in this field. 

 

As i indicated in my earlier letter, i am now even more regretful of my actions and i wish to profusely apologise for the time, trouble and inconvenience i have cause TfL and it's staff over this juvenile mistake that sees me possibly facing court action.

 

i wish at all costs to avoid a criminal record and I am happy to make immediate payment of the unpaid fare and any incurred costs that my actions have caused to settle this before it proceeds further.

 

I would appreciate your consideration and I sincerely hope that you can show some leniency in this matter.

a solicitor is a waste of money and cannot help you

 

send the letter.

[dx100uk]

then let him waste his money

there is nothing a solicitor can do for you that you can't do yourself.

and ofcourse moneywise it will end up simply a greater overall bill for the same outcome.

 

there are 100's of charlatan solicitors out there that simply charge money for rubbish advice that is of little help other than lining their pockets 

 

there is no sign of a court case yet either

and he wont even be able to attend as it will be a Single Justice Procedure 

 

[dx100uk]

please don't ever plead not guilty on public transport ticket issue.

you'll end up a nasty creek with more to pay than ever.

 

 

[dx100uk]

it would be reasonably rare going by thread outcomes here if you did get a record for this.

i'm not even sure if TfL will converse with a solicitor either

 

[dx100uk]

you didn't get fined nor did you get an administrative penalty from TfL..

you got an Out Of Court Settlement.

 

which you could easily have done for free yourself.
