The Freedom Pass also can clash (error 94 on the reader)

As it is an Oyster card, but just formatted differently, then that's
not a surprise. In due course I would expect other smartcards in ITSO
format will also clash - that depends on the ITSO functionality being
switched on on the TfL network of card reading devices. The TfL card
readers will in due course read Oyster, contactless bank cards and
ITSO spec cards.

Don't they already on buses? Or do national bus concession cards still have
to be handled manually?
