How much was the cash element of the fare?

If it’s more than £35 then you pay £35. if less then it’s the 50p/leg

Not sure that’s correct. When booking for HfP reasons I always take the ‘most cash’ option (because it’s tax deductible) and all the cancellation go through at 50p. Did one just last week.
