SWT have reminded me
From the 12 January 2015, South West Trains passengers will be unable to
interchange at Waterloo East for London Bridge as services will not be
stopping at London Bridge. This is expected to continue until August 2016.

How do I travel to London Bridge?
Your ticket will be accepted on London Underground Jubilee Line services
from London Waterloo – London Bridge only. Please be aware that this will
make the Jubilee line busier than usual.
Your ticket will also be valid on bus services 381 and RV1 on the section
of route between London Bridge (stop S) and Waterloo (Stop P). Magnetic
paper point‐to‐point tickets on TfL bus services which will need to be shown to the driver
Systems such as Oyster and ticket barriers will be programmed to allow
eligible passengers to use their existing National Rail, Oyster and
Contactless tickets/products to pass through barriers on the TfL network.
London Bridge is only 1.3 miles from London Waterloo and is on average 30
minute walk. Details on walking routes can be found using the TfL Journey Planner
Season Ticket Holders
If you hold a ticket to ‘London Terminals’ that is not due for renewal
before January 2015 and you wish to travel to London Bridge then you will
need to visit any South West Trains ticket office and exchange your
current ticket before 1 January 2015. This will enable you to use London
Underground Jubilee line services between London Waterloo and London Bridge.
Boy, the already heavily loaded Jubilee is going to be more than crush
loaded between Waterloo and London Bridge!
