How do you feel about this? I am very annoyed.

We are being ripped,cant see any other way of describing it.

I really can't get myself worked up over it. I know it's a bit sneaky but in the grand scheme of thing I'm not going to let it bother me, life is too short to worry about the equivalent of two thirds of a pint.

May as well charge 3 quid then !

I'm not overly impressed either but your poll options are not exactly conducive to constructive debate.

[olaftab]

I guess I trivialised it by adding lot of choices. Don't know how to modify so feel free to remove the bottom 3?

For a cash transaction, it's out of order. Already being discussed at length on the season ticket pack thread, by the way.

Edit your original post.

2 pounds charge for what ?

[TheSandman]

Buying tickets with cash. In the past they charged a transaction fee just to those paying with credit and debit cards but EU regulations prevents them from doing that. So, rather than removing the surcharge from credit and debit card payments they have extended it to all forms of ticket purchases.

I wonder what the make up of ticket purchases is? Obviously, not being local, I never buy tickets over the counter and always put them on my card and I'd have thought most buy online or over the phone like I do, but maybe I'm wrong.

It's ridiculous.

Charging people 2 quid to pay by debit card was already a pretty flakey practise, but opting to charge it for EVERY transaction is totally impossible to defend.
