I then re-explained that I’m supposed to have access and she’s supposed to scan the card first. She reluctantly agreed to try but had to put the computer in some mode. Scanned my MP card, then the boarding pass…voila, it spit out the Senator receipt. She was then apologetic.
persistence pays off
I haven't needed my card in LHR ... I wonder if they have a different system.
