Do you wait until you've completely run out of cash before looking
around for an ATM? At least with Oyster, you have the option of
an auto top-up if forward planning is so difficult for you.


AIUI you only have the auto or web top-up option if you use a single
regular tube station. Lots of people don't do that.


You need to use the Tube or DLR for the auto top-up to work, as it won't
top up on a bus or tram. AFAIK it will work at any Tube or DLR station.
I think I had to specify the station where Auto Top-Up would be
registered on my Oyster, but that was just an initial set-up
requirement.
