Default Oyster nonsense

Just got myself a PAYG Oyster.

I CBA to stand in line at the counter and fill in a form
just to 'protect' my 5 pounds worth of credit.

But I am interested in knowing that it records my
journeys correctly so I go to the website, type in my
number and what do I get "We are unable to provide
this informaton for an unregistered card"

WTF not. Surely I should be as entitled to confirm
that the system has recorded my journeys correctly
as the next person.


No idea. But if you go to one of the larger ticket tube station
machines (the ones with a big screen) and touch your Oyster on the pad
it will display a listing of your last ten or so journeys. I find that
much easier to check my pre-pay usage than fiddling around on the web.
