Can I buy an Oyster reader?

So, what happens if the Bus card-reader is broken, and the driver
waves you on - happens a couple of times per month on the routes that
I use (308, 678). Take it I should insist on paying cash?
You can add the 8, 277 & 15 to that list and countless more probably.
The official TfL position is that you should pay the cash fare and request
a refund of the price difference from them...
Unless you were capped that day in which case you would be entitled to
a full refund.
Or if that journey was the last one that day and took you past a cap then
you would get a refund of any extra you paid in total beyond the cap.
Not a very elegant solution.
Not a solution at all. How much of my time am I expected
to use up to receive my 40p refund?
If the transport company really think that this is reasonable
then the OFT really ought to have a look at their T&Cs and
tell them which ones to delete.
