Thanks, I’ll stop using contactless and go to e-ticket Harlow to Tottenham Hale (£8.10) and then TfL contactless on the Underground (£3.30) as it works out 50p cheaper overall.
Does seem strange the off-peak is much cheaper by splitting the National Rail and Underground parts, compared to the peak where it was the same (11.20 + 3.80 by splitting vs £15 by contactless) but since the TfL price increase its now 10p more to split (11.20 + 3.90).
Yes but that isn’t the cause of the price differential between Elizabeth line and Piccadilly line, that is due to the track access charges.
The government did insist that TfL charge peak times at all times to Heathrow as part of the funding agreement, but it could also be argued that is sensible business practice as the travel patterns at Heathrow are different to standard commute timings.
