I forgot to check out of the DLR before getting on the Jubilee at
Canning Town and have an excess £5.20 charge - is there anything I can
do about it?

Actually what it says is:

[No touch-in] to Dalston Junction [London Overground]

I went from East India Canning Town Canada Water Dalston Junction

But I'm pretty certain I touched in at East India - does it not
register if you don't touch out of the DLR?

Your touch out should have registered on DLR but it seems it hasn't
done so. Sometimes transactions aren't captured / written to the card.

Does that mean you don't have to touch out/in at Canning Town?

I saw this morning at East India that there was a faulty Oyster reader,
which I may have used - it's very noisy there what with Aspen Way and
planes into/out of City and so I may have missed the no beep etc.

Well the Oyster Help Desk should be able to check if equipment was
faulty.

For your journey you only needed to touch in at East India and out at
Dalston. As the ELL takes you through Zone 1 at Shoreditch High St
there is no need to use the pink validator at Canada Water.

But if you did, would it have any effect on a touch-in missing "incomplete
journey" ?

A good point.

Email with your Oyster card number, tell them what
journey you did and where you would like to pick up your refund.

I completed the online refund request choosing the 'I thought I'd
touched in' excuse and it's been refunded, although there's nothing
showing in the refund history, only in the journey history.

"Refund history" seems to be where they put refunds because of delays.
Refunds because of missing touches in/out are, I suppose considered to
be corrections to the journey history.

BTW, the reason I suggested emailing them is because the idiotic website
only allows one refund per month, so I end up having to email them
anyway, so I consider that you might as well *only* email them.
