No, the answer is to sell extensions at a sensible price to people who
can show a paper travelcard at the start of their journey.


There's no reason why the £4 punishment fare should apply to people
who need an extension on a paper travelcard.


AIUI, period Travelcards from out-boundary on National Rail are valid
from z1-6, so the question doesn't arise.

If you have any other form of period Travelcard, then not getting it
on Oyster is just bizarre masochism.



Have you still not heard that National Rail stations don't sell or
update Oyster cards? Or that not everyone has an Oyster shop between
their home and their nearest station?

Or do you just mean that the bizarre masochism you refer to is
subsumed by the bizarre masochism of living in South London?
