From there the thread went off into discussions about the progress
Foyles have made in book retailing over the last 30 years. Meanwhile,
I'm still waiting for the online top up user to pop up and tell me
what I've been missing out on over the years.


I'm not claiming it was a great contribution but was the reason I gave for
using online top-up at least once wholly irrelevant? For ease of
reference I have copied it below.


"My reason for using the online top-up facility was to gain online access
to my journey history.


No, I accept that. For the odd one-off transaction the inconvenience is just
about acceptable; the last time I collected anything at a ticket gate was
when I set up auto top-up. What I'm particularly interested in is anyone who
prefers online over manual top ups for putting PAYG value on their Oyster on
a regular basis.
