And when you get to the end, having requested a transfer to the new
card, it drops the bombshell that you have to collect it within 7 days
from a specified station!!! Yes, that old banana skin again. And guess
what, I'm not travelling until about a week after that.

And I bet it means a TfL station, not just a station.

You can only specify stations from their list, and while these are all
stations with oyster barriers, some will be National Rail stations.

The most recent Oyster "collection" I did was at St Pancras Low-Level
(Thameslink) for example.
