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.


I object to the higher cash fares resulting from organisations that want
to coerce me into lending them money in advance for a "discount" (ie
what used to be the normal fare).


In that case, do feel free to grab your spade and set up a rival service,
run to your own specifications!
