Just out of interest, I'd like to know if anyone reading this group has
or is planning to get a purely Pre Pay oyster. From what I've gathered
(and I realise it's early days) there hasn't been that much demand for
them so far.
I've ordered one for my wife: she only uses the tube two or three days
a week therefore making a season tickets uneconomical.
Is lure of 2003 single fare prices greater than the disadvantage of
paying a £3.00 deposit and locking an amount of cash away on an Oyster
card?
For her sort of travel and Oyster is ideal, and with the added lures
of 2003 fares and discount weekend singles. The £3 isn't much of an
issue, especially as it's refundable.
Cheers,
Jason.
