Oyster in disguise
Whose bright idea was it to produce Freedom Passes on Oyster which bear
no resemblance at all to the Oyster cards we all know and love? (Maybe)
Apart from the ones which throw up a 70 from their very first day of
use, I've seen several which have been destroyed because their owners
have tried to put them through the gates like the old magnetic passes.
With all the advertising, the Oyster Card is instantly recognisable so
why was the Freedom Pass version produced to look completely different
and even given out in the old style orange wallet?
The whole thing is very confusing for many people and several I've
spoken to, say they weren't told how to use them either.
