The Boundary Fares claims were filed in the Competition Appeal Tribunal by
Justin Gutmann on behalf of millions of rail passengers who have paid twice
for part of their journeys. If you travelled on the South Western,
Southeastern, Thameslink, Southern, Great Northern or Gatwick Express
routes, you could be entitled to claim compensation.

The train operators of the South Western, Southeastern, Thameslink,
Southern, Great Northern and Gatwick Express routes are alleged to have not
made ‘boundary’ fares readily available for Travelcard holders to purchase,
nor making passengers aware of their existence. The rail companies’
failures have left customers with little option but to buy a higher fare
than they would have needed because their Travelcard already entitled them
to travel for part of their journey.

Boundary fares allow passengers who own a Travelcard to travel beyond the
zones covered by their Travelcard without doubling up on payment.
Independent research has shown that boundary fares are not readily
available through online platforms or over the telephone from the operators
of these routes and are rarely offered at ticket counters unless expressly
requested by passengers.

It is alleged that this imposition constitutes an unfair price for fares
and is an abuse of the companies’ dominant position and in breach of
competition law.
