I don't want auto-top-up unless they pay me interest for all the
money spent that I won't use for months. But internet top-up might be
useful if I knew where I was going next. What you can't do AIUI is
top up a card without using it at the same time.

Surely the 50p interest a year that you might lose is more than
outweighed by the time saved by not having to queue up at ticket
machines every journey?

Hardly every journey. One in 20 perhaps.
