How Do I Check My Oyster Pre Pay Balance?
 

I have a Pre Pay Oyster, which I used yesterday for the first time.

How do I keep tracks of what the system thinks I'm using?

Every time you enter through a tube station gate, your balance is shown at
the bottom of the display.

You can also touch your Oyster on a touchscreen ticket machine and get a
complete journey history.

The website tells you your balance but not individual transactions.

For a detailed listing you walk up to the large ticket machines or the
q-cutter ones, touch your card on the pad, and a button appears on
screen "view card usage" and it lists them in reverse order.

Finally the ticket off staff can print the most detailed list off of
all on a sort of paper receipt but I'm not sure if they're supposed to
waste time printing those out for ordinary punters, probably will if
you ask nicely though.

Yes! Except it is only the last ten or so IIRC.

Thanks everyone.

Why is this information not given anywhere? I have looked at the Oyster
website and been looking around stations I visited. I don't think it is
on any of the leaflets I hoard.

The leaflet in the Oyster wallet[1] is out of date and gives little Pre
Pay information. The insert I downloaded today (Nov 2003) is a bit more
recent, but still not sufficiently informative.

You should be able to get Oyster wallets at any Underground station.

I did. The enclosed leaflet was dated September 2003 and the information
appears out of date.
