This week for a change the only day I used trains was on Tuesday 24th when I spent the day on the Elizabeth Line. All my journeys plus a couple of bus trips easily made the £14.10 daily cap.
Does the £14.10 cap count as £4.95 towards the daily bus cap as well?
I ask because I capped on buses on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and on Friday and Today I spent £3.30 each day on buses only.
If it does count then I can expect a £3.10 refund in a couple of weeks as I would have hit the weekly bus cap today.
Hi Chris,
Whatever you spent on buses will count towards the weekly bus cap. So if you’d already capped before taking a bus on Tuesday then it won’t count. If you only took two buses then the most it would count is £3.30 assuming they didn’t include a hopper fare.
I took three buses after being capped at £14.10.
Does this mean that had I taken the same itinerary of journeys but I did the three bus journeys at the start rather than the end of my day that it would still have capped at £14.10 but the £4.95 would have also counted towards the weekly bus cap too?
Seems a bit unfair lolThanks Mike, it’s useful information to know!
Thinking logically, had the Oyster card been loaded with a weekly or longer bus pass on it then the daily cap would still have been £14.10 for the travel on other modes!
Still must admit, I wouldn’t have fancied trying to get down to Abbey Wood by 5.30am using the bus so it was all worth it in the end 🙂
