Open letter to London Underground about Oyster card
Dear London Underground
We are writing to let you know that <a href="/quiet_riots/449-oyster-card-at-london-underground/users">16 people</a> joined the Quiet Riot about Oyster card and we are asking for something to be done.
Here are some examples of our experiences
We have to be honest. Oyster is amazing. It auto-tops up. You never wait at ticket offices. It works on trains. It has made the whole experience of tickets go away. We just need it now across all train networks. over 1 year ago via web
This is a positive Quiet Riot comment! Want to say how amazingly good the Oyster card is. It really is. No queueing at ticket desks ever. Autotop up means it's scarily easy to spend money but all in all it's a great service and something most cities in the world have nothing remotely as good as. translation missing: root.datetime.distance_in_words.almost_x_years ago via web
Oyster card is generally a great service.
But, why oh why, is it still not accepted on South West Trains. It's barmy. over 2 years ago via web
We are doing things to get the issue resolved
I have to say I quite like my Oyster card & when I am outside of London I feel a bit naked without it. I got on a bus in Bristol only to remember that I had to hand over actual money to go anywhere followed by thinking do I even have any change?! I wish that the oyster card service was national so when I book my rail tickets online they could be added to my oyster card rather than posted to me or me having to queue for the fast ticket machines. I hope some of the problems with oyster will be solved with the announcement that it will now cover all the London rail services over 2 years ago via web
Can LU please build barriers at the Waterloo end of the Waterloo and City line? I am fed up of forgetting to pass my Oyster card over the reader hidden by the crowds, particularly in the evening rush on the way home and then being charged some stupid amount for my journey. There is no excuse as the barriers at the Bank end seem to be able to cope with the volumes of people. over 2 years ago via web
