So what was "the bit with it" ?
The Record Card issued with the Oyster when last topped up.
Is it compulsory to have it with you? And what if you renew via the
internet?
Then you don't get one, so there is no way they can make it compulsory.
When will WAGN Gripper's be able to read Oysters?
When they have hand held checkers.
Get away!
Some have, as I said.
Why should I be willing to pay a three pound deposit for an Oyster when
it is going to save LUL a fortune? (But not it seems yet, WAGN.)
Because pre-pay will save you money on singles. And if you want a 7
day travelcard on Oyster you'll be able to renew over the internet or
at a ticket machine....
Still doesn't answer why LUL/TfL are charging a deposit on the card (or
why passengers are willing to pay it.)
If you don't like it, take it back and get your £3 back then.
