Oyster Barrier Tailgating

was constantly doctoring the date hand-stamped on my travelcard. I had a whole stack of them that I could choose from to doctor easily and also would use ones that were the right date but a year off and stupid stuff like that, or a month out, and just change the 5 of may to be 6 for June. I'm sure they knew and just didn't give a shit.

Ha, I'd forgotten about that. Excellent.
Showing your (our) age.

Apparently only certain certificated guards are allowed to give out fines.
These are not the same as guards that sell you tickets or work the barriers.

The train company can't hold you against your will - so if you tell the barrier operator that you like to leave they have to let you through.

I've only tried this once though.

More information? I've been fined too many times in the past, I'd love to stick a clause quote up their arse.
