(13 Feb 2017, 9:34 pm)Tamesider Sorry, I was wrong about monthly/annual, but Day tickets still go up about 7%. I'm not sure how many people risk monthly, let alone annual tickets, with passengers either liable to job change, or only ever 8 weeks away from a possible service change/reduction.
The flaw in the argument about boarding times is fairly obvious: Relatively few people pay with cash, especially after 0900 on Mon/Tues. And even then another possible solution would be to re-instate the ban on £20 notes, originally introduced by both First and Stagecoach on Police advice, due to the large numbers of forgeries in circulation.
