The timescale of this was what I asked about just two weeks ago, and voila
it's here - not the full version by any means, as they'll be no capping
initially, and it'll be some while longer before other TfL modes (Tube,
DLR, LO etc) accept it, with no word yet on NR.
So
With only XX percentage of customers having a "contactless" bank card (I
don't have one, and I have 3 bank cards in my wallet).
Only usable on the bus
and no capping even to the one day buss pass.
I predict a complete failure of this experiment
