it's not just TfL stations - though I think some
people have suggested there might be a few stations missing from the

One needs to be making a journey from or to that station, the refund
can't just be picked up from a ticket machine.


Sucks for people who rarely travel by train, like those who mostly use
buses.


Or bikes. I tend to take the train when I've racked up enough miles for
one day, and it's a time of day / place where I'm allowed to take the bike
on - not easy to predict a few days in advance, and the refund only stays
available for a week.

Yes, though I'd suggest such people are less likely to encounter Oyster
charging issues that lead on to refunds being given.


As likely as anyone else per journey. And what about passengers' charter
refunds? Are they still paper vouchers even if the journey was paid for
with Oyster pre-pay?
