On work programme, busfare?

apppa

Hi,

Today I was booked in for a work shop, when I arrived I was told it had been cancelled. I was told they would have the session next week instead and that I would get a letter about it.

I am very careful with my oystercard, only use it for buses and when I really need it. I felt a bit upset because I thought they could have called us in the morning to cancel, the session was at 2pm.

How do I claim help for the bus fare when I go there? I know I should have asked today but I was to ashamed.
Do I have to put money into my account on that day? and show a reciept?

Thanks

You give them the top up receipt and they pay you but only for the price of the fare there and back.

Not sure if you can top up say £2.80 at a time as I always round up to the nearest £1 so say you need £2.80 to get there (and back) and you top up £3 they only give you back £2.80
