Why do some ticket staff keep selling me tickets on paper instead
of oyster?

Where?

West Ham, although it seems to just be one person who does this sort of
thing. He seems to be pretty unhelpful generally.

Is it because I have a student rate photocard?

No, discount rate 7 day travel-cards have been on Oyster for quite
a while now.

That's what I'd thought, but some people still seem a bit confused
about this issue.

It's extremely
inconvenient to be sold a paper ticket when I have an oyster. The
only consolation is that it's only a weekly ticket so I should be
able to get a new one on oyster fairly soon.

Have you *actually* said that you have an Oyster card and want
your 7 day travel-card on it?

I didn't mention Oyster. I thought that all tickets were supposed to be
on Oyster now anyway.
