Default foreign contactless cards on Buses (MR article)

MR - Mar 2013 (Bank Cards make ticketing debut)

"Levente Nagy arrived in London from Budapest. He hoped on a bus, held his
Hungarian bank card against the reader and ... No hanging around, no
purchase of an Oyster, just the simple use of his bank card to pay the
fare."

Yet Tfl's information on contactless payment says:

"If you have a credit, debit or charge card that has been *issued in the UK*
and displays the contactless payment symbol, you should be able to use it on
buses to pay for single journeys"

So is TFL's website wrong or did MF make Mr Nagy up (naughty naughty!)?
