In my experience even a first generation chip and pin card could interfere

It's nice to see how easy these contactless cards make our lives!
Don't ever make the mistake of thinking this is done for the passengers
benefit - just like Oyster its done entirely for TfLs benefit (a paper
travelcard was just as simple to use as an Oyster card but you didn't need a
5 quid deposit first). Soon they'll be able to suck money direct out of
peoples bank accounts and no doubt plenty of mugs are already lined up to
help them do it.
