If you don’t have a valid ticket or pass, or you don’t tap in successfully with a smart card, contactless card or contactless device when travelling by bus, you may be charged a penalty fare of up to £120

Bee Network staff regularly travel across the bus network checking tickets. A penalty fare may be issued as a notice during inspection or as a charge directly to a contactless card or device you presented during an inspection.
