[1] I did get my Oyster card swiped by someone on board a DLR train to
Custom House last Fri. If I hadn't touched in my annual Oystercard,
would I have been liable for a penalty fare? The reason I ask, is
that the station tannoy always reminds PAYG customers to always touch
in and touch out, but it doesn't mention annual Oysters.


Annual Oystercard holders do not need to Touch-In on the DLR.


....or on the Tube, or on bendy buses, or on trams, or on National
Rail. The only occasions where you need to touch in with a period
Oyster card are when you physically need to open barriers, and when
boarding a non-bendy bus.
