As is so often the case with stations "South of the River" [1], you have
been mis-sold a ticket.

the vast majority of issuing errors I've come across have been from
Southeastern, Southern and South West Trains trains stations.

The classic one I have to argue everytime at Farnham station (especially if
I get the ticket seller widely known to be less intelligent than the rest)
is that if I ask for a travelcard and an extension from Boundary Zone 6 to x
(say Brighton, for the sake of argument), instead of getting what I ask for,
I am sold the travelcard and a ticket for Surbiton (the boundary station) to
x.
