While I'm at it, why do they only use one platform at the Bank end,
and why can't the ticket inspectors open the gate for "paper ticket"
customers to escape?


Are they the customers who have a paper travelcard in a plastic wallet and
can't be ar**ed to remove it to pass it through the ticket gate. I think a
few of them come from Basingstoke...

It might be those people!

I don't have a problem with my ticket and its little plastic wallet, its
a bit slower then an oyster, but it works just fine (Even though you
can't read the text on the ticket any more as its so worn.
