An earlier post pointed to the tfl t&cs which mentioned, in para
6.6.3, "You must present the Gold Record Card when you wish to buy a
concessionary fare ticket under the terms of the Gold Card
scheme."

What is this "Gold Card scheme" and where can I find information
on "concessionary fare tickets" or any other benefits of owning a
Gold Card?

If you have an Annual Season Ticket for a route in the Network
Card area, you automatically get a Gold Card. This offers more or
less the same benefits as a Network Card with fewer restrictions. For
example, the £10 minimum fare does not apply, you can upgrade to
first class at weekends for £1.50 etc.


There appears to be a minimum now, but only £4.80.


The £4.80 minimum fare only applies when buying Day Travelcards.
