I'd gladly except the oystercard (as someone who
travels in the evening from zone 6 a few times a
week)...there are advantages... not having to wait
15+ minutes to get a ticket at the booking office, and
ticket machines which are either bust, not accepting
some coins... et al.


I was amazed that daily tickets on Oyster would be introduced last (if at
all) - haven't LU realised that the ticket tout problem will disappear
overnight when the ODTCs go on Oyster?


But you haven't asked yourself who cause the most problems; long
queues of impatient people waiting to buy/renew tickets or a few
ticket touts?
