Yes... That's why you're getting unresolved journeys. Until Pre Pay was
enabled it didn't matter so much. Unfortunately the information for
passengers with season tickets has been less than clear....


The information is clear "...customers using prepay must touch in and
out..." But, I'm led to beleive on here, incorrect :-)


No, that information is absolutely correct; what seems to be confusing
some people is the idea that they don't need to do the same if they have
period tickets on Oyster. It is in *that* way that some of the publicity
has been misleading. Everyone with an Oyster (except Freedom Passes and
Staff Passes) now also have Pre Pay enabled whether they like it or not
and whether they use it or not.


Yeah, when I got the transcript from my Oyster it showed me an
unresolved journey from Canada Water [I travelled to New Cross Gate
and thence onwards by SouthCentral]. There is a reader at NXG, but I
believe it says "PrePay only". Am I supposed to scan there every time
I travel this route? Bizarre.
