On the London-bound platform, there is a staffed booking office which is open Monday to Friday 06:30-09:30 only. At all other times, including Saturday and Sunday the station is unstaffed.

Outside of these hours tickets can be purchased via a S&B Ticket Vending Machine (TVM Lite) machine. This offers a full range of day and open tickets from any station to any station on the UK network with Railcard discounts, subject to the Railcard Restrictions. It also offers Weekly, Monthly and Yearly tickets (photocard or smart Key Card required, previous purchases required for Monthly and above). However TVM Lites only accept card payments and therefore Passengers with cash will need to pay on the train with the Conductor or as soon as possible at the next available staffed ticket office.
