Oyster kartica je narejena tako, da te ne spusti skozi če imaš na kartici negativno stanje:
(What should I do if I have a negative balance on my Oyster card? You will need to add credit to clear the negative balance before you next travel. You will not be able to travel until you do this.)
Domnevam da greš lahko v minus maksimalno £8.30:
(You may pay a maximum pay as you go fare of up to £8.30. You could also get a Penalty fare or be prosecuted.
When stations are very busy we may leave the gates open to control crowds and ensure that people can leave the station quickly and safely. If so, you may not be able to touch out but we'll aim to fix this for you when you touch in to start your next journey.)
Minimalno moraš pa gor imeti £2.10 glede na cenik enega potovanja v coni. Direktnega odgovora pa ni.
Če nimaš dovolj denarja, ti se prehod ne odpre:
(If you've enough pay as you go credit, or a valid Travelcard you'll see a green light. If there are gates, they'll open. If you don't have enough credit or a valid Travelcard a 'seek assistance' message will be displayed and the gates will not open. You can't travel until you top up or renew your season ticket on your Oyster card or buy a paper ticket.).
Glede na moje izkušnje se lahko večkrat zgodi, da ti napiše da se obrni na zaposlene. V glavnem če si prepričan da ni nič narobe, probaj še enkrat, vratca se bodo odprla. Lahko se zgodi, da se kartica pokvari (ne more se pa razmagnetiti kot papirnata karta), takrat se pa le obrni na staff.
You can make one journey at any time in zone one. In all other zones you have two rates, peak and off-peak. Every journey should be paid in full before entering the system. Outside zone one you need £1.40 to enter TfL Rail (Tube/DLR/London Overground). You can also go by bus or tram for £1.35.
