Too much faffing about for the occasional visitor, especially tourists.
You have to pay 3 quid deposit to get an Oyster in the first place, then
claim a refund when you hand it in.
Or keep it until you next come back. Our wonderful city is worth a
return visit you know! ;-) And I think we've said before, a little
homework before the start might make it cheaper to loose the £3 deposit
vs. the difference between cash fares and prepay.
We have two spare Oyster cards at home which we top up & lend to friends
and family when they come down to stop with us.
