Question about London underground 21:30 - Jan 16 with 1118 viewsdickythorpe

A bloke in work reckons once you use a contactless debit card to buy a ticket that costs £1.60, every further time that day you use that card it doesn't deduct anymore money from your card.
That surely can't be right........

No it calculates from where you swipe where you enter and then you have swipe again when you leave.

It’s true.

I did it just before Christmas and later that day I used the same card to buy a Porsche 911 which I haven’t been charged for.

It deducts up to the cost of a one day card depending on the zones you use. But I much prefer Joe and his Porsche.

As everyone else has said, I don’t use my Oyster card anymore just contactless. It can be a bit of a pain when claiming travel expenses but great otherwise.

I have the Oyster app on my phone linked to a debit card on my business account so I can get trip history at least, the only way to do it afaik.

Remember to tap out on trains but not on the bus. 👍🏻

As has been said, Oyster card or contactless is the way to go. Was up there the other day with my 16 year old son, it was £4.90 (cash) for a single journey in zone 1 or 2, or £2.40 for contactless /Oyster. If you use Oyster / contactless there is a daily cap which is £7 per day in zones 1 and 2, so once you are on your 3rd journey you won’t pay more than £7 unless you don’t tap in or out because they then charge extra, but you will be refunded if you contact TFL. After £7 cap kicks in there’s no more charge that day.

Agreed, for the 2 of us it was £14 which is a lot. Public transport on the whole is expensive in the UK, car is nearly always cheaper especially when there’s more than 1 person travelling.
