As far as I am aware you can not use pre-pay as a method of payment yet. The
facility is there both the ticket office and the passenger machines are
capable but no instructions on its use yet.
Buy your ticket from the passenger machine and ignore the small sticker that
tells you not to.


It's interesting that many LUL people think that, I first used pre-pay
to buy a ticket in December! As it doesn't yet work on the bus,
that's mostly all I've used it for. Sadly it does seem to be debiting
it correctly :-(

I suppose it's a communication problem again, as left to their own
devices, without ever needing to buy a ticket, employees aren't
necessarily going to discover these things whereas passengers might.
