they iron out the "issues" that are already in evidence before PAYG
is introduced though.

What issues are those?

For example, as someone just pointed out, that apparently you will be
charged 'full price' (possibly a full zone 1-6 travelcard)

I think it will be a highest price single (zone 1-D, 5.30 I think).

if your journey
appears to be incomplete. That is if the scanners aren't working, or if
the gates are open at the destination

I have a 1,2,3 travelcard. I travel from Leytonstone to Stratford on the
tube and then get the Great Eastern train to Romford. I do not need to exit
the barriers for this interchange.

Are there Scanners on the platforms (There are at Walthmstow Central BR) ?
Otherwise my journey will appear incomplete.
Will it cause a problem on a monthly Oyster ?

Season tickets don't need scanning (although LT would like you to)
as you have paid a flat rate so they don't need your journey data
to charge you the relevant fare. Mainline stations that accept
non-Travelcard LT tickets[1] should have readers.

This got me reading the TfL Conditions of Carrirage and I noticed -

http://www.tfl.gov.uk/buses/nftt_bus_saver.shtml#2
"It is a book of 6 single bus tickets, which can be bought in advance,
for travel on buses, including N-prefixed Night buses, across the
entire London bus network."

But at http://tube.tfl.gov.uk/content/about/COC.pdf at page 10 -
"Ticket Bus single Saver 6
You cannot use it on N-prefixed Night Buses or special bus services."

Which is right?



Cheers,

Jason.

That document is dated 2000. Things have changed since then.

The first source you quoted. Savers have been valid on night buses ever
since night-bus fares were made the same as their day-time equivalents.
All the night-bus maps make this clear:

Night bus fares are now the same as day fares
* Adult Savers are valid on Night buses and work
out at 65p per journey
