Hi everyone,
So my story is that basically I was boarding a train from Levelshume to Manchester Piccadilly, and I boarded the train without a railcard, because I'm new here to England by the way. So I'm 22 and I bought a 16-25 ticket without realizing that I needed a railcard to validate it. I was stopped by the train station guards and I told them what exactly happened and they assured me that this will not go to court at all. I receive two letters later (one was asking for my railcard, which I really don't have), and other one is saying that I was accused of claiming to have a railcard when I already specifically said I don't have it at all. Now the letter says I may receive a summons. What should I do? I offered an out of court settlement for this...
Thanks everyone
