I've tried to get Oyster cards three times from three different
newsagents, all recommended by TFL's web****e. None of them could do
it.

Assuming they were "Oyster Ticket Stops" rather than merely "Ticket
Stops", did any of them give a reason?


One of them told me there was no such thing as an anonymous pre-pay
card, the others had run out of tickets and had no idea when they would
get any more.
