As I understand it:

Your Oyster card has to be *fully* registered (i.e. form completed and
sent off, and details recorded on the card itself) to apply the Discount.

Your Railcard number is entered in the "Photocard" field.

The Ticket Office bod chooses the appropriate Railcard type from the
list of Discounts.

The Discount expiry date is set to the same as your Railcard.

The updated information is then written back to the Oyster card.

Ok, went and did it today, this time at Canary Wharf. The woman behind
the counter looked a little clueless at first, and gave me the same
form the man at Canada Water had done, but since I had time to kill, I
persevered and filled it out. She then took it from me, and input all
my details into the computer, including my name, address, my password,
etc., as well as the railcard type, number, expiry (I could see the
screen as she was doing it). She seemed to be successful, so I guess
I'll find out when I go as high as the cap on Wednesday.

After that success I did spend 45 minutes waiting for the ELC at
Canada Water, but I guess you can't have everything!

Thanks for all the helpful comments
