Right... bear with me on this one. I am on the verge of losing it
with the Oyster helpdesk.
My commute to work uses zones 2 to 5. My journey starts at a National
Rail station. I then subsequently use the underground.
I dont normally know until the last minute (due to partner's
unpredictable shift pattern) whether I will drive or get public
transport to work that week so unable to buy travelcard in advance.
So, on a Monday morning I arrive at the station and need to buy a 7
day travelcard. They cannot sell me a ticket on Oyster so insist I
purchase a paper ticket.
I suggest that, if possible, you buy your weekly Travelcard on Oyster
from a local Oyster Ticket Stop (newsagent).
