Money is a valid form of payment in this country in case you hadn't
noticed and everywhere else excepts it without penalties. Except TfL.


Many companies, especially utilities and insurance companies, charge
extra for cash payments these days. Paying for gas and electricity by
cash add over 200 pounds a year to an 800 pound annual bill. There are
many other specific examples. For instance, Virgin media charge an
additional five pounds a month (60 a year) for cash payments.
