How easy is it to get a PT for the tube? I'm coming down to London next
week
from 'oop north' and am hoping to use my BR employee travel pass to get a
'privilege ticket' but have heard from some colleagues that it is nigh on
impossible to get one?!? I'm looking at buying an off-peak travel card for
zones 1&2, I realise this will cost £5 or so per day but I'm hoping to get
discount on that, anyone able to offer advice on how to get one and how
much
it might cost?

Thanx in advance!

Speaking as railway staff I can say I've never had a problem. It's a pain
you can't buy them in advance and you've got to go to the ticket window but
other than that a flash of the pass and there's no problem. They also
usually mis-price it to a 75% priv.

You can only get an all underground pass not a travel card (that includes
buses) as rail staff don't qualify for bus discounts.
