It's about time Trading Standards were bought into this, TfL have been
ripping passengers off left right and centre with this shambolic
Oystercard system.

It does work perfectly well on buses and Tramlink where a simple flat
fare is deducted at the start of the journey but having been
overcharged on LU, and spent a considerable time at ticket office
windows getting reimbursed, I now stick with paper tickets for rail
journies and would advise others to do the same.
