I got done for not having a train ticket (don't ask) a couple of months back and had to pay a penalty fare of £20.
I paid £3 at the time and then went back and cleared the rest a few days later. Just as well I kept the reciept because I just got a 'notice of intent to prosecute' from Southwest Trains threatening all sorts of this and that if I don't pay up.
So I just contacted them through their contact form on their website quoting all sorts of numbers from the reciept, the exact time and date of the transaction, last 4 digits of the card etc.
I ended the message with "please let me know if you need any more info and get your facts right before sending out threatening letters.
Muppets!"
I won't get in trouble for calling them muppets will I?
