His morning outward journeys (bus & Tube) are given correctly. The
evening return is totally absent.


I had the same experience with data missing from the journey history. My
outward journey for the Christmas hols was listed but my return was missing.

According to the Oyster helpline there is a problem with the system
displaying all the data. They had it recorded on their copy but it does not
appear on the webpage which struck me as being particularly useless.

Another gripe I have about the journey history is why it has to be displayed
in such an unfathomable fashion - in contrast the printed version they sent
me was a model of clarity.

They seem to have recently introduced the minus sign into Journey
History, which improves clarity a bit. This is a very advanced concept
for the 21st Century...

Indeed they have, although now the 'Price Cap' column is completely empty so
they give with one hand and take away with the other.

And the minus sign is completely useless. AFAICT they've added a minus
sign when it's an Entry. The Exit items are all still positive,
regardless of whether the value is added back to the card or
subtracted from it.

I don't know if it's ever possible for an entry to be positive but I
suspect this would be wrong as well.
