I thought National Rail terms and conditions on Saver tickets allowed a
break of journey on the return journey.

How come LUL don't appear to agree that where the saver is to
Underground Zones 1 and 2, issued by One at Cambridge? WAGN staff I
checked with confirmed my recollection of the rules.

They claimed today the ticket only allows one tube journey, though the
barrier staff let me through anyway. The gate code was 51 (Already used
for 1 journey (single) or 2 journeys (return)) at entry and exit when I
resumed my journey.

From the 'Conditions of Carriage' (1.C.15).

"Please note that a ticket which entitles you to travel on the London
Underground does not entitle you to break and resume your journey at any of
its stations unless it is a season ticket or a Travelcard."

I only became aware of it because I was using a tube between Farringdon and
Liverpool Street and decided to hop off at Moorgate to pop into M&S. As
Moorgate is extremely close to Liverpool Street I had no intention of
resuming my journey on the tube. My gate pass would not operate the exit
gates at Moorgate. Fair enough I suppose though I can't see what there
would be to lose by it allowing me to exit but not to enter again.

I've had that trouble at Goodge Street once. I went back to Euston and
exited there. Your Moorgate problem sounds odd as it is a NR station,
though. My experience suggests LU doesn't insist on you exiting at the
right NR station for your journey.

At Moorgate, you don't reach NR by exiting the station - the
interchanges are all internal.

It's on Clive's list as a valid interchange station:

ISTM that for pax travelling to LivSt south on the Northern line,
exiting at Moorgate and walking is easier than changing at Bank

Of course, you will now volunteer to pay the Penalty Fare for the
journey you made without a valid ticket.

The staff (plural) I spoke to accepted that it was a valid ticket.

In an ideal world the staff would all be clued up, but alas the
railways are not an ideal world...
