I'm not sure if it has happened already or not but TfL want the fare
paid to be the same regardless of cash or card with no surcharge.

That's not unreasonable, but CC charges are not 5%

They're 0% in most shops. You don't expect to pay more for your shopping at
Tesco if you use a CC rather than debit or cash. The supermarket swallows the
cost since its more than made up for by the greater custom because of it.
Perhaps something the cabbies should bear in mind.
