They may be forbidden but that don't stop them.

Actually I did pay cash and the chap in the shop kept insisting that it was a Payzone charge rather than a shop charge.

NTA have been information. They won't be a payzone outlet for much longer if they carry on with this, we understand for cash transactions no charges can be imposed and this is in writing in the agreement the retailer signed

I'm guessing they got a phone call.

Its somewhat complicated but our understanding from the NTA is no fees are allowed for a cash transaction.

We are still awaiting formal confirmation of the exact rules.

Thank you for that - it's convenient for me to top up my Leap Card there, if I'm in town late I would come home by bus. Although I have the Short Hop Rail only Taxsaver Card, I like to have the Leap as well - I got it before the facility was in place to add it on to my Taxsaver ticket. Regards.
