NO SUNSHINE Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 No.Been getting the bus for 2 months now and never seen one. Usually keep my Oyster just in case so if I see feds at the stop or a inspector gets on I can scan it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Dott Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I just travel legit now. Been stopped too many times when I was younger. Been fined £20 a few times so I allow it. Espcially as I don't want a criminal record over not paying £2.50 or less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Dott Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Them ones where there are nuff inspectors and bus stops and quite a few people on your bus, it's sometimes a good idea to just stay where you are (assuming you aren't near the doors). More times than not, people seem to think if they get off the bus they won't be fined. A good few people do this, and there are only so many officers to handle it they will let the rest of the bus go. Seen it happen so many times, even though I was legit.

THUNDER CLAP Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Yup. Used to get hit alot when I lived in Rugby and skanked the train every weekend to London. I used to either stay in the toilet or pretend to be asleep. But the pretending to be asleep never works. I put on the waterworks a few times too and that works.

THUNDER CLAP Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Are there even inspectors on the underground?Yeah there is. I use a disability Oyster which isn't mine. Woman randomly came on at Bermondsey (Jubilee line) as SOON as the doors shut ticket inspector woman pulls out her badge and shouts for everyone to get their tickets out. I thought I was f*ckED. There was no way in hell I would pass as a MR. But THANK f*ck inspector woman had trouble with someone a few seats away. I quickly got off the next stop.One time I was legitimately travelling on the bus, some African man who looked about 40 odd got caught with a child travelcard. That was before Oysters though when it were all paper passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelo Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 its £50 nowbut yeah i jump train when i gotta go bluewater or something£50WTFAnd lol @ pretending to be asleep. I've done that successfully twice.That was about 3 years ago though.I have to travel legit coz all the stations I use to get to work have barriers. Plus its not about being caught in a suit. Some d*ckead thing.There are ticket inspectors on Underground, just not on the train. They appear about once a year on the transition points - i.e. where you change lines from greenpark in the tunnel etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
