Balham - Victoria on Oyster PAYG single is £2.60, £2 off peak.

That is curious; the corresponding LU fares are £2.70 & £2.20.

Oyster's helpline only explained "National Rail sets its own fares".
I trust an unholy row will start in January.

If you think that is bad, try Balham to Sloane Square

Balham (London Underground) to Sloane Square

Cash *£4.00
Oyster Peak *£ 2.70
Oyster Off-Peak *£2.20

Balham (National Rail) to Sloane Square

Oyster Peak *£ 3.70
Oyster Off-Peak *£3.10

(the latter being the PAYG variant of the National Rail Z3-U1 fare)

It's called "integrated transport"....

But is the NR cash fare going up?
