Oystercard - Mixing Pre-Pay and Season
 

I've just put £10 prepay on to my Oystercard which already has a monthly
ticket on it.

I've been told that when I go outside my Travelcard boundary the "Extension"
amount will be taken off.

I presume that the Monthly season will always over ride the pre-pay part ?

Also has anyone had any feedback from TFL concerning the "Misleading
marketing" in the summer concerning 2004 prices staying the same as 2003 for
all Oysters not just the prepay ?

See the thread "Another Oyster Prepay Thread - How Do You Buy It?"

Not always.... see above.

Not me.

I posted to another thread on 12/12/2003 quoting the response I received
from TfL to an e-mail I sent them:

"The reply from TfL received today admitted that the press release "wasn't
as clear as it should have been." They say that the 2003 fares will apply
only to single Tube and single DLR journeys paid for using Pre-Pay (also
bus and tram single journeys from later in 2004 when Pre-Pay becomes
available on those services), and that a new press release to clarify this
will be issued next week."

However, I haven't yet seen the promised press release.
