What makes you think they were ever "ITSO-ready"?


The transport commissioner's report of last July said that "The DfT is
also in discussions with Stagecoach South West Trains Limited to permit
it to turn off the interim ITSO facility at the Waterloo ticket gate
line which is currently incompatible with Oyster PAYG."

To what extent an "interim" facility was actually ITSO-ready is another
matter, though!
