An interesting article especially as I am currently in London for the weekend. One question, why would you tap in the later tap out on a different device anyway? I can certainly agree about if you forget to tap out ( at certain stations with no barriers ) you can be charged the full amount. |

I don't understand!? I assume the tube is none other than the Chunnel, but do people camp out in there or what? What could be happening to not tap out?  Oh wait, now I see "certain stations"... must be the Subway then... have a good laugh at me along with me... it was a strange nut fun pic I had of the other situation!

It's very easy to not tap out on the DLR. All other tube lines have barriers so you have no choice but to tap out with something. Also, I imagine its very easy to tap out with another card ever since they introduced the ability to use ordinary contactless credit or debit cards. |

As a regular tube user, I thought it was obvious. But then I’m a techie and I know how the system works. It’s also very easy to get a refund if you set up an account. |
