at Maryland, though I've made the journey both ways several times

apparent incident. That is, going from Maryland to Liverpool Street,
the exit gates have always opened upon swiping my card, and going either
way, I've never had any money deducted from my PAYG balance.

Yes. Maryland is in zone 3. Liverpool Street is in zone 1. You have
a zones 1-3 travelcard. There is no problem.

And if I meet a ticket inspector on the train to Liverpool Street, they're
just going to take my word that I boarded at Maryland rather than, say,
Shenfield (or some other Zone 3 station without barriers)? That seems
rather open to abuse.

Regards,
Tristan
