It's nothing to do with being 'lucky' as you put it - it's you
(apparently, seriously) considering making a positive decision to steal from/defraud the rest of the fare paying passengers. I am not saying I am lucky that I don't get caught (as I have never evaded fares), I just said that I never saw the ticket inspector inside the train, which possibly makes me a minority. It's not really worth getting a Z1234 travelcard, as I spend roughly 5 a day for 5 days, which gives me 25 pounds, nearly 10 less than a Z1234 travelcard, but 6 more than Z234, not to mention that I have bigger flexibility. It's worth the correct fare for the journey. You are offered to be carried at a rate. If you think that rate is not appropriate, don't use it - just make your own, alternative arrangements. Don't expect anyone on here to 'approve' your attempted avoidance tactics of the correct fare to be paid. By all means consider the legitimate (Oyster pre-pay perhaps) options to pay less, but as I said earlier, don't come crying to us if you attempt to defraud and you then get caught out (as others have done recently). I am using Oyster pre-pay, but a paper travelcard would be better. I don't say I am going to use it, and certainly wouldn't cry to you if I get caght, as I know it would be my fault (and that's my risk I might take). Also, I just checked - there are no travelcards in DLR ticket machines (or at least in Bow Church) - only one day travelcards, nothing more than that. And advertising the fact on here that you are considering avoiding paying the correct fare is hardly a good move either. I am not the first to do that, and nobody was heavily criticized for similar behaviour. And just a question - what does it have to do with DLR ticket machines (I suppose you quoted incorrectly) ![]() |
