How soon will I be able to use my Ticket?

Once the first repayment is made we will ask TfGM to issue the Ticket and contact you to arrange pick up. The ticket will be activated and available for use within 7 days of collection.

How will I collect my Ticket?

TfGM will contact you with details of where to collect your ticket from your nearest Information and Ticket Office. You will need to take some ID and a copy of your repayment agreement or agreement number as evidence when you collect your ticket.

What if I stop making the repayments?

If you stop making repayments, the Ticket will no longer work. If you find you are struggling to make a repayment, you should contact Hoot immediately to see if there is anything we can do to help.
