Is it possible to top up a card without going to a tube station?


I do mine at the newsagents over the road.

Even better, with Auto Top-up it's done automatically by direct debit,
with an e-mailed confirmation, whenever the balance gets below £5
(though not if you only use buses and trams). See Ask Oyster at
