my parents disagreed with telling them that my brother knew. they dont want him involved at all. this is what they have written up. any feedback will be appreciated as its being sent today. this is what they wrote: any feedback will be appreciated YB= younger brother M= me ( who messed up ) To whom this may concern, YB was not aware of his brother taking his oyster. On 17th May 2023 YB and M were together at this point M was visibly distressed and asked YB for his oyster which he replied its on the table. YB left to go school with his mother. He didn’t take his oyster with him because he had a bike injury in which his mother has to take him to school and home. Then afterwards M who you already know was very stressed out took the oyster. I as a parent am ashamed and wished M would have asked me before doing this. I am very disappointed and will make sure that this will never happen again. As you already will know that we ordered both oysters for both of my children. As well as M has offered to pay for the fare and any additional charges. Please forgive both M for his behaviour. I promise to you that he did not mean for any of this to happen and was only focusing on his exams.

hi, thanks for the feedback I’m going to show my parents and my older sister the forums as I have only told them about it they haven’t read it through. I have one question, is the start of the letter fine? I (father name) will be writing on behalf of (brother name) because he is a child. I firstly would like to apologise for my older sons behaviour while he was in a stressed out state nevertheless he did commit a offence even if he didn’t know it was one. is this okay?

for my brothers letter this is a draft To whom this may concern, I (father name) will be writing on behalf of (brother name) because he is a child. I firstly would like to apologise for my older sons behaviour while he was in a stressed out state nevertheless he did commit a offence even if he didn’t know it was one. On 17th May 2023 (brother name) was not aware that his older brother used his card until after he came home from school, this is when his brother apologised and told him. (My name) was home because he’s on study leave for his exams. (Brother name) left his oyster on the table. He didn’t take it to school because he had a bike injury. He was dropped and picked up in car by his mother. I'm not really sure what else we can write. my parents and sister said to ask for any more feedback before they send it off.

I received one letter regarding deny or admit. they know I have been looking at forums for advice since my parents are not educated so they can only help me as much as they are able to

my parents know. im 18 btw i was caught in the bus not railway.

TfL letter to my parents regarding someone else using their 11-15yrs old's card 2023-05-19 TfL letter to parents of 11-15 card holder re recent use by another.pdf

I sent the email, my brother received a letter asking of his perspective on the matter. it’s as well as it could be especially with my exams. thanks for asking

havent received anything yet. kinda worried it didn't go through so I made a additional account for it

any feedback would be appreciated thanks

oh okay thanks I also forgot to mention that I lost the oyster in December and I put it as inactive but then found it afterward. do you think that is necessary to write because I think it would be in my records for tfl I put your feedback in: I know this does not begin to justify my behaviour and there is no excuse I should be punished but please do not give me a criminal conviction as this will affect my future in the pharmaceutical/medical field I will pursue this year. If it is possible to pay the outstanding fare and additional costs, please allow me to do this. As well as I will make sure to spread my story to others so they do not make the same mistake. Please forgive me Thank you

Hello, can anyone please give me any feedback to improve this? I have looked at other posts on a similar matter and this is going to be posted in another forum so I can get a very diverse opinion of this. I am thinking of attaching the proof that I ordered the card and my exam timetable to show that I wasn't lying and that I am changing. Can anyone tell me if this is a good idea as I have seen others do it. To whom it may concern, I firstly would like to apologise for my actions on 17/05/2023 and the time I have wasted of who is reading this. While there is no excuse for my behaviour I would like to thank TFL for allowing me to explain it. I was very stressed out that day due to my A-Level exam that will happen on the 19th, I decided to leave the house to go to another place to cool down previously I had a 16-18 oyster however I found it broken a couple of days prior to the offence when I was cleaning up my room. Without thinking and feeling the pressure of stress I took my brother's oyster under the impression I wasn’t committing such a serious offence since my card was also free however that does not excuse my behaviour and now have learnt to never ever attempt to use another oyster other than myself. The days after my offence I have spent ashamed and very upset since I never have had a conviction nor been in trouble like this ever. While this does not rectify my behaviour I applied for an Oyster card straight away after the offence took place and did have to call customer service prior to applying due to an issue with the account. I know this does not begin to justify my behaviour and there is no excuse I should be punished but please do not give me a criminal conviction as this will affect my future in the pharaceutical/medical field I will pursue this year. I am happy to take a fine regarding my inexcusable behaviour and will make sure to spread my story to others so they do not make the same mistake. Please forgive my actions. Thank you

is denying the offence when you are unaware that what you did is an offence?

i received the letter, can anyone please help me understand it? 2023-05-17 TfL letter re pass use.pdf

I've read some threads but I may have skimmed read so I must have missed out on details. In the threads I read people were over 18 and didn't have a 16-18 oyster so I just wanted to know if having a 16-18 oyster could have made a difference or not.

whats a OOC settlement?
