The likelyhood is all they would have would be his address so nothing

And as the punter presumably had the need to travel pretty soon after
losing it (possibly immediately), the likelihood is that he already had a
new one and would perhaps later have reported it lost/stolen and had it
blocked and any outstanding balance refunded or moved to the new card,
which I think you can do with a registered card.

It was an early evening. He/she may not have known. It would save a
lot of panic and searching in the morning if needed the next day (it
was just before PAYG acceptance on NR and seemed likely to have been
lost by someone who was on their way out of London on NR, but it might
have had a season on it).

There were a number of reasons why I thought it was worth making the
effort.

Obviously I am alone in this.

While we all accept you were doing it for purely altruistic reasons you
obviously haven't thought it through.
