Title: Loop hole closed

Was always cheaper FC only to split any journey south of oxford from WOS at oxf

Got  monthly - seemed a bit high - asked for the through ticket price - ten pounds cheaper

My monthly has gone from 930 odd to 1030  :-[

Used to be I got 930 odd by splitting at oxford Versus 1030 through - now the split is 1040ish

I thought splitting was because of price control - any idea what happened?

Price increases have affected your different season tickets at different rates, one has been increased more so will now put the cost above a through ticket.

I also think there is no price control for 1st class tickets.  Only standard class are price controlled.
