Oyster was meant to

believe its a similar situation at SWT.

They have changed something, last year when in London, I discovered the
LU readers were responding to my Singapore CEPAS card, where as the
Oyster readers on the buses were ignoring it.

They made some changes a few months ago to enable the gates to accept
the new issue of Freedom Passes (free travel passes for elderly and
disabled Londoners). These now have both Oyster and ITSO technology on
the same card. Maybe you encountered an early version of the updated gates.
