Default Gold Card benefits

Does anyone know where I can find a list of what the Gold Card
benefits are if I buy an Annual tube pass? All the information I
can find on tube.tfl.gov.uk says things like "some travel restrictions
apply" but don't detail them :-(

This was all I could find, sorry. Ticket holders are asked to "enquire at
your local National Rail / Tube station".

Just made sure that they print the record card that goes with your
oyster card on a GOLD record card. When I got mine, the guy put
it on an ordinary record card. It has caused no end of problems,
trying to get the one-third discount, and culminated in being
refused the discount at KX yesterday. Despite the fact taht the
record card says '12 months travelcard'. Sigh.

Easy - just go and get it re-printed, you might say? Well, no,
not so easy - I was told at the LUL ticket desk that they
couldn't re-print it without issuing a new travelcard.

ARGH!

David.

If my paper Gold Card becomes unreadable then they issue me with a new one
with a price of £0.00. I fail to see why they can't do a similar thing with
Oyster and the record card. What do they do if your Oyster card fails? Say
tough luck pay again.

Dave.
