Default Travelcard extending?

I did find this by searching a bit more on ticket extensions (wasn't aware
of these).

" Ticket Extensions covering Zone 1 cost £1.40 but are only available from
the machines in Zones 1 & 2. "


Where did you find this information? I was under the impression that a
zone 1 extension is £2 - it certainly is when I use my Zone 2-3 Season
to travel to zone 1.

Or have I missed something? ;-)

Cheers,

Jason.
