At what point would it be better to buy a 1 day travelcard instead of
relying on the capping ?

If you:

- wish to travel on National Rail (except certain routes where pre-pay
is valid)
- are the holder of a Railcard or Gold Card, or are travelling with
someone who is, if you can buy a discounted Travelcard, and if it
would cost less than the pre-pay cap would be
- want the daily charge to cover journeys starting between 0000 and
0429 the following day (as opposed to 0430 and 0429 the following
day)
- are not travelling via Zone 1, but are making at least 1 Tube
journey that would be charged as if you did
- often forget to touch in
- have an unregistered Oyster card and often forget to touch out
