Many won’t need to get in touch with Transport for London (TfL), which looks after London Underground, Overground, buses, trams and other types of transport around the capital.

Often, we’ll just tap our Contactless or Oyster and hop on the Tube with no issues.

But what if you do need to contact TfL about something?

Be it praise, a suggestion for improvement, a complaint, needing assistance navigating the Tube, or trying to reunite with a lost bag or brolly, it’s useful to know how to get in touch – especially given the chaotic disruption as a result of recent Tube strikes.

Here’s all the details you need.
