Default Oyster charging for journeys that don't happen

Doesn't Waterloo have an "airside" subway, allowing passengers to
change platform without having to touch out and back in? Admittedly
the passenger information down there isn't as good as on the main
concourse. Or, rather than touching out, just ask the barrier staff
to let you out and back in - offer them your Oyster card to check
with a handheld scanner, or at that point they may well just trust
you as the easiest option. An automated system like Oyster is going
to have to involve some assumptions in the programming, with a fine
balancing act between trust and mistrust.


Isn't open in peak hours only?
