Default The PAYG Oystercard rip off

But compare that with how easy it is to fall across problems with
Oyster PAYG. It's unlikely you could use it for even a few trips
without coming across some sort of problem. That's the difference.


I spent a week in London just before Easter. 15 Underground train
journeys (i.e. more than "a few"), 3 buses, all on Oyster. Zero
problems.

Indeed, none of my family (two of whom live in London and commute daily
on Oyster) have *ever* had a problem.


Interesting. How do you manage it? What's the secret?

I notice you did an awful lot of Underground journeys (more in one
week than I've done in two months) but no normal trains, and hardly
any buses. Could that have something to do with it?
