I am being charged SFP (£0.00) for my Underground trips!


When you renew your Annual Bus Pass, why not suggest that they create a
completely new account for you.

Sorry for being thick but by SFP, do you mean that you've been charged
paper-ticket rate instead of the lower Oyster rate?

SFP is the Sheddies' Favourite Price ie NOTHING (an in joke with
uk.rec.sheds) I did specify £0.00 to clarify!

It may be a problem with the zero entry level which has only recently
been introduced if you're making more than eight bus journeys between
tube journeys so the tube journey info is getting lost. (Just a thought)

I might well be doing more than eight bus journeys - that's why I have a
Bus Pass! Yesterday, the new card only had two or three bus journeys on
it and the Underground journeys were consecutive but itemised at £0.00.

Tripping around for free makes me feel guilty. It won't when I get my
Freedom Pass, which I hope will be soon.

Not true! Sheddie's Favourite Price is when they pay you to take it
away. Free is S2°FP.

Hardly ever - but it's nice when it does.

I can't see what your original post has to do with sheds. It appears
that nothing helpful has emanated from the cross-post either.
(£0.00) appears on the POD when a TC on Oyster has expired but the
system allows you to travel on zero pre-pay for one journey.

uk.rec.sheds is a somewhat eclectic group of individuals with whom I
post and socialise. Its denizens claim to be averse to spending money.

Matter of opinion, really. This thread has become rather more humourous
and lengthy in the Shed.

I have never had a TC as such on this Oyster Card. As stated, I have an
Annual Bus Pass which is still in date but will expire soon.

Meanwhile, back in the Shed...
