You cannot touch in with the member of staff as this is an inspection to check you have touched in. You must touch on at the platform reader before boarding or attempting to board the tram. Appeals cannot be made for this reason.
It is the customer's responsibility to provide the correct ticket on demand. When you present a card/device for inspection it is your promise that you touched on with the same card/device before boarding. Unfortunately appeals cannot be made where customer subsequently provides ticket evidence as we cannot check who bought the ticket, who it was bought for, or that the ticket was in their possession at the time of the inspection.
