For about 3 weeks one of the oyster readers to get out of the station
has
been broken - it does nothing when you put your oyster card on it -
last
week a handwritten note was added to it. During last week a second
reader
in the "out" direction broke. This week those 2 remain broken and 3
of
the
"in" ones are also broken. That means there's now only one "in"
reader
working.
I wonder what has happened.. is it just Ealing that is being affected
by
large scale reader failure or is it happening else where?
Ok.. now it's even worse. Only one Oyster reader in the whole station
works
and that's the one on the ticket gate.. brilliant!
If it makes you feel any better they have the reverse situation at
Limehouse c2c. The gates accept Oyster cards but reject LT issued
paper Travelcards with code 111 (Pod code error). Apparently Cubic pay
a visit a couple of times a month to play with the gates according to
the station staff but have not managed to fix the problem since it
surfaced at the beginning of this year.

All of the oyster card readers at Ealing Broadway are now working again
apart from one in the out direction which has been out of order for as long
as I've had an Oyster card..
