Default Bus tickets - single?

if the card has now been used for the first time

for TfL it can probably be used again in a shop without the first time PIN.



Except I've never been asked for that "first-time" PIN. Have you?



No. But then I don't use contactless. There was a reason PINs were required

for using cards - that reason hasn't gone away just for conveniences sake

and because people are too lazy or too stupid to spend 10 seconds entering

one.


PIN pads on TfL gates would slow down the throughput a tad.
