Heard at London Bridge Jubilee line westbound platform late on Friday
night, an obviously pre-recorded announcement informing us that
"Oyster Pay-As-You-Go is not valid on any National Rail services from
this station".

I despair.

So have you emailed TfL to let them know, or are you just going to
despair in silence?

Well, I could go through the hassle of trawling through the TfL
website to find an email address that probably won't reach the right
person and, even if it does, probably won't result in anything being
done, but life is too short.




In any case, what would be the purpose of the email? Is it to tell TfL
where Oyster is valid, or is it to tell TfL what announcements they are
making?

You'd think they'd already know both.


You would, but clearly they don't, so a simple note to TfL requesting
them to check the staff at London Bridge, and telling them the
date/time so they can work out which individual probably made the
wrong announcement,


It was a pre-recorded message.
