You assume I pay with cash. Why?

You assume that people losing their Oyster cards is so common as to
offset the cost advantage of auto-topup. Why?


You assume that works for you works for everyone. Please don't.


You were the one who started this discussion by assuming that just
because you don't use auto topup, there is no reason for anyone else to
use it.


I suspect there are lots of people using auto top-up at £20 at a time when I
would top up at a ticket stop for less than a fiver.
