I object to having to lend TfL money for trips I may not make until 6
months hence.

So buy paper tickets.

I also object to the blanket application of a policy, even
to low users and those needing receipts for the correct amount.

And I object to the higher fares resulting from people who want the
bulk-discount benefits, but aren't prepared to toe the line.

A printout of usage is hardly a financial document.

All kinds of railway receipt are a bit weaker than the average
commercial invoice.

Anyway, I topped up at a ticket stop in Monmouth St this morning. Much
easier, expect when making a trip to a main line station by underground so
no time to wander about for a ticket stop.
