Exactly as you describe (though the rat run interchange at Bank gets
more and more weird with the current works), but..

If you could confirm the route you took then it might provide a clue.


solar penguin guessed right - yesterday I logged in again to check,
and a forgotten £1.30 Bus.7 has appeared between top-up and White City
touch in. Dang! Obviously the online code has hardwired formulas that
parse the data incorrectly. I can claim some of these journeys, and
it's a treat to explain that the horror Entry and Balance numbers are
not the actual cost (room to fiddle..)
