But you're happy to cost TfL more money by doing small top ups in

the service)


If a provider offers a service, why should a consumer moralise as to
whether to accept that service or not? If they did not want to offer
it, they wouldn't offer it.

Neil

Because they are a public entity and are therefore duty bound to offer
the service, to some extent without regard of cost?

And what's the problem with moralising about things? If we all did this
a little more with respect of things paid for or subsidised by the state
and were a little less selfish about things then maybe the economy would
be in a marginally better state.
