I managed to speak to the Oyster helpline about this yesterday and they have
issued a refund of this and the other overcharge.


Thanks for all your help chaps :-)


Did they refund the cost of the premium rate phone call?


Who said anything about a premium rate phone call Paul


Non geographic calls (especially 0870 calls) are premium rates, they
aren't included in most free call price plans etc. They don't
advertise the geographic number anywhere.

Either way, a 20 minute call at 4p per minute (the last time I tried
to get my money back) is 80p, not worth it if you're trying to get a
weekend non-zone-1 ticket back.
