PAYG on FCC north of Finsbury Park
"Barry Salter" wrote in message ... I would guess it's more a case of Cubic not wanting to have to send Engineers out to do a mass switch on when PAYG is finally accepted, as the validators at Palmers Green, Edmonton Green and Silver Street are all turned on as well (though generally still covered). 2 readers at BHK on the up road platform access (side) gate. Both un-covered - but where before, and when the cover was taken off someone would replace it. Had a look the other day when passing through; 1 machine - 'touch for entry/exit' the other said 'closed' If someone at Edmonton / Silver St / Enfield Town can tell me if any of those are 'open' I will test them at some point over the weekend with a PAYG card I have kicking about. (And before people say anything I have an existing paper gold card that covers me anyway) |

I took a detour on my way home this evening, and gave it a go myself (stopping via Finsbury Park, where I also touched out at a standalone reader, and bought a paper ticket just in case) And... it seems to have worked. I went down to Wood Green tube and got a journey history printout, which shows Wood Lane - Finsbury Park (at £0.00) followed by Wood Lane - Alexandra Palace at £3.80, then the next line says *cap applied*. This price is also the same as the z1-3 PAYG off-peak cap with Railcard discount, most of which makes sense. Just to add - I've had a look at the 8-week journey history from the Oyster helpline, and the Finsbury Park - Alexandra Palace journey is missing; though the balance has been adjusted accordingly. |
