But buses and tube gatelines don't have a pin-pad - so does this mean
(a) that you no longer have to enable them, so that all contactless
cards are instantly valuable to a thief who wants to travel around
London, or (b) you do have to use them somewhere else first such as in
a shop where a pin-pad is provided? I've searched the TfL website
without being able to find anything on this topic.

At least two of my cards have only *ever* been used as contactless on
TfL (I got them to play with), and they both worked fine first time.

Good to know TfL are completely ignoring basic banking security. Makes me
glad I've disabled all my contactless cards.
