Hello,
As there are occasionally works on the western end of the Central Line I was wondering if I took LU from say Oxford Circus to Marylebone and then NR to Northolt Park / South Ruislip, could I legitimately change from Marylebone (LU) to Marylebone (NR) without getting charged two separate fares ? At first it would seem logical for this to be a valid OOSI but could someone kindly clarify this. Cheers UC |

(It's all very well saying to change elsewhere, but that isn't overly practical if you want the DLR). Neil -- Neil Williams Put my first name before the at to reply. |

(It's all very well saying to change elsewhere, but that isn't overly practical if you want the DLR). I was told by gateline staff at Mansion House the following are temporary OSI with 30 minute timers: Bank to Cannon Street, Mansion House, and Monument. I have not confirmed it. Without it, the network-wide advice to interchange at Cannon Street or Mansion House makes no sense. I find it OUTRAGEOUS that LU applies undocumented pricing rules. OTOH, a SAMF (ticket seller) at Monument knew about the interchange with Bank but denied the others. I recently added SAMF - Station Assistant Multi-Function and SCRA - Station Control Room Assistant to my LU jargon dictionary. ![]() You can always ask at the web site https://custserv.tfl.gov.uk/icss_csip/init.do and report back - I have no confidence in 020 7222 1234 to give correct answers to such questions. If answer from web site turns out wrong, you have evidence for a complaint. My current effort asks them to have consistent flash photography rules. Conditions of carriage say no; BTP at Westminster assisting tourists to take flash photos in ticket hall said not on platforms; Traffic Circular 49 - I found one lying around in a ticket hall - says no on platforms and OK elsewhere at Station Supervisor's discretion. -- Walter Briscoe |

I understand that there is a temporary OSI in place at Bank / Monument and also with Cannon St - for Oyster PAYG. *The list covers permanent OSIs. While queuing at Bank recently, I witnessed "customer" after "customer" being advised that they wouldn't be charged twice. I think this explanation is a full time job for several staff. |
