Default Two Oyster pickups at one

Meanwhile, I'll try the FCC in/out trick and see what happens


The chap manning the FCC barriers was convinced I'd be charged for
the In/Out *plus* a subsequent tube trip. But I tried it anyway.
Without looking at my online record, I think it docked me £4.20 for
the In/Out, then a credit of £2.50 when I touched out at the other
end of the LUL Z1 journey - so a total cost of £1.70


Huh? The Zone 1 Oyster fare is £1.90 now.


It could have been £4.40 (then £2.50 credit). The numbers only flash up
for an instant. Of course it takes 48hrs for them to crawl onto the
online history, so I can't check it right away.

Where on this mind-bogglingly complex table should I be looking for what
FCC might have charged for the touch-in/touch out?
