remarked:
Travelcards on Oyster are valid on Virgin (and in theory on Scotrail,

but I don't think it saves anything) if combined with a paper ticket

from the boundary zone of the Travelcard.



Would it be correct to say that:



the Oyster Travelcard validity you mention is because the minimum

available is a "7 day season ticket"?



a Paper one-day Travelcard is not a season, but a ODTC plus a BZ ticket

*is* allowable because it's actually transformed into a 'new ticket'

viz: the return half of an outboundary Travelcard.



there's some dispute as to whether Virgin accept Oyster-based products

*at all*. [What official document confirms or denies this?]


Virgin have to treat Oyster cards (and ITSO cards) the same as paper tickets under section 9 of the CoC.

What's your authority for that? I'm fairly sure XC doesn't have to
accept EMT's ITSO tickets between Nottingham and Derby, for example.

ps Any comment on my other questions.

pps I wish you'd sort out your quoting (which I have not fixed, above,
because doing so gets tiresome).
