oyster travel pass card and delay repay with first capital connect train service

blinkbox

I hold one month oyster travel pass to travel overground which includes tram/tube/buses. 2 weeks back first capital connect service to bedford was delayed by more than 1 hrs , can i claim for DELAY REPAY compensation with first capital connect ?

I checked their website , but there is no mention about delay repay for oyster card monthly travel pass users ?

Are delay compensations applicable for only travel card holders with photo affixed ?

Well on the delay repay page it says Oyster card holders can apply

So just fill in the form and send it off - maybe attach a scan of your Oyster, maybe just leave the ticket box blank

Edit - but surely that Oyster is not valid for travel to Bedford?

@dzug1 . Thanks for the information.

Yes oyster is not valid till bedford , my journey is usually till city thameslink .

@dzug1, just a query - is it possible to have a photo affixed monthly travel card and a seperate oyster card with weekly tram/bus passes.

I use bus in a limited manner, so thought of having it in a weekly extension loaded to oyster card.

All zone bus pass is free with any london travel card

Yes it's possible - but as dacouch says there's no point. Bus (any TfL sponsored bus in any zone ) is included in your monthly travelcard

Thanks for your reply.

So if i am right, i can have a photo affixed travel card and use it inside london ! correct ? Assume the photo affixed monthly travel card is provided by southern railway or first capital connect services.

I never knew this option , anyways thanks for the information.

Cheers

It depends on what you mean by a photo affixed 'travelcard'.

If it is actually a season ticket - ie it says on it from station xxx to London terminals or a specific London station then it's only valid for that journey (plus intermediate stations on the line of route)

If it's from a specific station to R12356 it's a travelcard and is valid on all transport including buses
