value, if you use public transports regularly in London. Call
07930056188 if interested, (I won't reply to txts).

You know they are (a) partly refundable, and (b) not transferrable,
right? So it's illegal for you to sell it, but you could return it for
a partial refund, so why not do that?

pedantically

is it illegal for him to sell it for whatever it is worth to the buyer?

Of course, as it is linked to a specific numbered photo card, that value to
someone else is going to be no more than "interest" value

As far as I know an adult Travelcard within z1-6 bought at a TfL ticket
office is the one ticket of that type which doesn't require a photocard.

I thought monthly and longer Travelcards do have to be registered
though if issued on an Oyster Card.

Paper travelcard seasons issued from NR stations have to be linked to
a photocard. A quick check of TOC websites shows no exception for
Travelcard seasons not having a photocard. A different practice from
TfL.

Yes, buying at a NR office does require a photocard.

Therefore a ticket wth 3 months value will be linked in some way to an
identifiable individual.

What if they paid cash, or with a prepay credit card?

There is therefore a risk that anyone using it could be charged with
fraud if a ticket inspector picked up on something or just asked some
logical questions.

That'll depend on how many blue moons we have between now and the end of
March!

Unless (purely by accident/oversight of course) the card happens to
reported as lost/stolen?

But for a while I'm sure it didn't, for Travelcards only. This ended
a few years ago - 2012? So they were flirting with the idea of
dropping the photo.

So are Network Railcards but the T&C still say they are not transferrable.

The Oyster card or ticket is property of TfL so it isn't the
passenger's to sell. What a passenger has is a licence to travel,
effectively, which is part refundable but not transferrable.

Do any railcards have photos these days? Senior ones don't.

I'm not claiming it's transferable, we'd drifted off to discuss
photocards. Most Railcards don't have photos.
