The horror!

The "inside" isn't manned 24x7. And thanks for confirming my impression
that there's a breed of tech geek who thinks one minor improvement is
justifiable, how ever many negative consequences it has. (And no,
talking to humans isn't one of those - the human's barcode reader
struggled to read the new fob too, increasing the length of the queue).

So pay by card or cash, whats the problem?

In fact petrol stations are where I get shot of all of my lose change since
you can spend exactly the amount you want down to the penny.
