They must have some idea of the consequences of closing the ticket offices
they have already closed, surely?


They must. But the rational for this full closure is the expected use
of PayWave, and they can't have any idea if this will become the
alternative of choice because it isn't available yet


Isn't that several months late now? (I know it's available on buses and
to a small number of tube trialists, but the rollout was originally
intended to be in 'early 2014' I thought. Maybe they are waiting for all
the Barclays OnePulse to be flushed out of the system (potential 100%
card clash), which is 30th June.
