London Travelwatch on OEPs
In message of Fri, 5 Feb

I could always adapt the quiz that has been used in LUL as a "tester" for staff to see if they understood all of the various issues relating to Oyster on NR. It covers a wide range of issues - I did it again today and still only managed 11 out of 12! I should really have got 12. Might be fun to see how well people on the group understand the various concepts. Paul, Please, can I or we see it? What process is used to ensure that staff-testing quizzes are correct and kept so when conditions change? e.g. Oyster deposits and comparison with Day Travelcards. For me, Auto top-up PAYG is very convenient. It avoids the spending commitment of a Travelcard. However, it is fraught with the risk of maximum fares on a touching failure. OTOH, it is physically easier to use than a paper Travelcard. The removal of the £0.50 daily sweetener means I try to buy a Travelcard for any day when I expect to do more than 3 underground journeys. (I HATE the lack (or incoherence) of ticketing information since January 2. London Travelwatch was presented with a fait accompli on the decision not to publish new editions of Your Guide to Tickets and Fares. There is no link to Oyster on http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/faresandtickets/2930 ..aspx. There ARE links from http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/default.aspx . AFAIK, TfL took the decision quietly. No press release or other information. I suspect it was a good cost-saving decision, but the lack of publicity makes me wonder.) -- Walter Briscoe |
