Oyster offline
When I got to the end of my tube journey today, none of the Oyster
readers were working and the ticket office staff said they were all offline. This hasn't happened to me before -- how does this journey get charged? Is it one of those "unresolved journeys"? And if it is, how do I "resolve" it? |

Go to a ticket office or call the helpline. Nevertheless there is some resilience in the system. I was waved through a faulty gate at (I think) Kings Cross a few weeks ago, travelled to Finsbury Park, where there are no gates, and touched my card against the wall-mounted reader there which then assumed that I was entering, not exiting, the system. This was using an Oyster loaded with both a travelcard and pre-pay. It did count as an unresolved journey, but didn't interfere with my pre-pay balance: the system clearly assumed that I'd stayed within the zones covered by the travelcard, and not that I'd made a quick single trip from Finsbury Park to Amersham Martin |
