I'm not sure that many employers really need that. I can't see it being


very popular, either with the poor sod that's got to fight through it to
process the expenses nor with the person who many not want their exact
movements for the last month broadcast to their employer.

"Umm, that morning that you had to be up early for the important meeting -
why did you enter Piccadilly Circus at damn near midnight?"



If I found this was a problem I would probably get myself a second card for
business use only (and charge the deposit to expenses). Then I could just
attach the whole printout to my claim at the end of the month rather than
having to go through it with a highlighter pen.


That's similar to what I did last month - I counted what all the
journeys on my personal Oyster (some season, some prepay for out of
zone) WOULD have cost if they had been on a separate card, added it all
up, bought Prepay to that value and handed in the receipt for that.

If they don't like that (and there are one or two obvious reasons why
they might not!), then I probably will just get an additional card for
work use as you suggest.
