doners-14-and-28-november-using-contactless

Friday 14 and Friday 28 November, part of Mastercard's ongoing
"Priceless London" promotional exercise.

Those looking to exploit this to the full should note that
contactless cards don't work 'Oyster-style' (tap-in etc) on the cable
car or on river buses, nor does it work on the 15H Heritage
Routemaster buses.

But Watford Junction, Broxbourne, Shenfield and Grays - as stations
outside the zones but in what was once given the unofficial moniker
'Oyster-land' (now 'Oyster & contactless land'?) - are some of the
exotic destinations one can reach gratis courtesy of the card with
the Venn diagram.

Alas, I'm 'with' Visa (which payment network a debit or credit card
is with is not something that exercises me a great deal!)

Oh, woe is me too! I have an HSBC credit which used to be Mastercard but
they switched me to Visa. Bother!
