Default Oyster card journeys on expenses

As someone who visits London frequently, I already have an
(unregistered) Oyster card, which I top up from time to time with
little bits of cash here and there. In a couple of weeks though, I'll
be going to London for a work-related visit.


To save money, I'm intending to use the Oyster card. Is there a way I
can get a print-out of my journey history, to show to my boss, so I
can claim expenses back? Do I have to register my card for this, or
can I obtain a print-out from a ticket office, or from one of the
machines?


You can get a printout at a ticket office, but only for the last
8 journeys (you can look at them on a ticket machine too, but not
print them). Try to make sure the agent understands you just want the
journey history printout, otherwise you get a detailed listing as long as
your arm.
