London Transport Photo Card
Transport for London,, offer students the opportunity to obtain discounts on their Bus, Tube, Docklands Light Railway and Tramlink travel in and around London. Although we do not issue the cards directly, we do stamp and sign the forms validating your student status.
With a Student Photocard, you can buy a 7 Day, monthly or longer period
ticket from the 'Youth' range. This range of tickets comprises 'Youth' Bus
Passes, 'Youth' LT Cards (valid on bus, Tube, Docklands Light Railway and
Tramlink only) and 'Youth' Tube point-to-point season tickets.
You will save 30% off the price of an adult rate Bus Pass and point-to-point
season ticket, while the price of a 'Youth' LT Card is 30% less than the
equivalent adult rate Travelcard. These discounts apply to tickets bought
from 1 September 2002 with an expiry date of no later than the expiry date
of your Student Photocard.
An administration fee of £5.00 is required (not for an extension
Photocard). When completing Section 3 of the application form, be especially
careful. Course of 1 year or less complete the section headed 'Dates of
course of 1 year or less' only by entering the course start date and end
date. Courses of more than 1 year complete the section headed 'Course for
more than 1 year' only. If in your intermediate 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th
year, ticket the appropriate box only - do not enter any dates. If in your
final year, tick the final box and then enter your final term start and
end date. Ensure that your application form bears the authorisation stamp,
establishment registration number and is signed by an authorised signatory
of the Students' Union. Enclose a valid form of payment (credit/debit card,
cheque/postal order made payable to "Transport Trading Limited"),
for the fee of £5.00 which covers administration costs, postage and
packing (we do not accept cash). This fee is non-refundable because we still
incur costs in processing incorrect and incomplete application forms. Enclose
one (1) passport size photograph (40mm x 46mm) with your name printed on
the reverse. This confirms that the photograph is a true likeness of you.
