Default Oyster ticketing developments

I'm wondering if someone in SWT's pricing department has made a major
cockup.

For a few origins I just checked down in Hants, the peak travelcard addon
is about £4, the offpeak is about £9.60, but the super offpeak is back to
about £4.00 ish. I usually get the super offpeak and hadn't noticed the
difference, but the two offpeak ticket types should really have the same
extra cost for the travelcard portion - surely?


PS to above, I've worked out the marginal cost of the travelcard 'addon' for
a few SWT stations - and for the Offpeak, it can be quite ridiculous - look
at Weymouth:

Origin/Anytime Day/Offpeak Day /Super Offpeak Day
Weymouth £5.90 / £13.40 / £3.40
Bournemouth £4.40 / £10.80 / £3.90
Southampton £3.30 / £9.60 / £4.50
Winchester £3.40 / £9.80 / £4.40
Basingstoke £5.50 / £4.50 / £4.80
Woking £7.10 / £4.50 / £3.60

I've emailed SWT's customer relations as well...
