Default Oyster cards damaged by mobile phones??

... maybe, maybe not...

But that's what the driver of a bus I was on today suggested when 2 or 3
oyster cards failed to be read.

I overheard the conversation...

DRIVER: "Have you had your card near any mobile phones or computers?"
PASSENGER: "Err, yes."
DRIVER: "That's what the problem is then - take it back to where you bought
it from."


I don't buy the 'being near a computer' argument for one minute, but could
oyster card be damaged by mobile phones?

When I'm working my Oyster is always near my mobile and I've had no
problems.
