I used my Oyster card (with Senior Railcard registered) to get from
Waterloo to Putney on SWT last night, arriving at 22:44. I am sure I
touched in (to open the barrier at Waterloo) and out at Putney where
the barriers were open and no staff were to be seen other than
cleaners.

The touch out showed £1.90 and (£0.00). My starting balance was £1.90.
At first I thought this meant I have been charged too much and the
new card balance was zero.

I went past East Putney this morning and checked on the big ticket
machine there. It showed my balance was still £1.90 and showed the
journey history correctly but with a fare of "£0.00".

How did that happen?

Wild speculation, anything to do with the Weybridge inspired
humongous clusterfu*k on Monday evening/night?

Tell us more? Services from Waterloo seemed to be running normally when I
got my train.
