Thank you. This has answered all my questions about travelling around London. This channel is a great resource. The government should be paying you for the great work you do!!!
So pleased it's helped. In fact when I was pulling it together you were one of the watchers I hoped it would help....
I’ve been getting cheap tickets on an app. Want a share?
Oyster cards are now 7 pounds and thats not counted as a deposit you get back after a one year like it was before.
Looks like a lot of fun!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU
having spent 2 hours getting frustrated with TFL website trying to buy a travelcard and failing, which contains nothing that even remotely hints at what you have explained in a simple video, not one mention of the yellow scanner, nothing at all.
TFL need to link to you.
Thanks so much for watching and sorry to here about your frustrations! 👍😀
Do you have to touch in and touch out for the cable car?
Yes you do as this operates the barriers to get in and out of the stations. Thanks for watching :)
Been watching your excellent videos. 🇬🇧💯 New subscriber here. Quick question ... if my wife and I are traveling together and I tap in first with our Mastercard ... how do I give her the card to use without go back thru?? Slide it on the floor lol. J/k .... I guess buy 1 Oyster card for her and I use the credit card.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated 🇬🇧
Here's a thought. Do you have you MasterCard stored on your phone (apple/Google pay?) As I believe this wouldean you can use it as two different payment methods, as if you are solo travelling if you start off using your card you can't then use your phone or watch - or double charged! Otherwise Oyster card....🚌🚇🛥️🚠 Also a massive thanks for joining us here 👍😀
Thanks for this info, worked out well last weekend
Out of interest how would you prove to a ticket inspector you paid if you tapped with your phone/Oyster card ?
Fantastic, glad it did. The ticket inspectors have a device you hold your card next to when they come round and they know if you have used it to tap in - don't see them often, but when you do :)

Hello, my family and I hope to be there the first of June we are a party of 3 (16 year old teen) do we have to have a credit card for each individual??? Or should we go with the oyster card? Thanks
Yes a credit card for each individual would be the most convenient as you can have an Oyster Card but you'll need to keep it topped up. Have a fantastic visit :)
Do you have to have internet on your phone to pay?
No you don't :)
So do you just tap in around the time of the train you want to come
Yes, just tap in when you get to the station and the barriers then open for you 👍
How about cash? .. Information about ticket purchases using only cash would have been very useful. Not everyone arrives with valid debit or credit cards (having expired during a covid absence ). Info such as this is far more valuable now.
Hi Keith, thanks for watching and your comment and TFL doesn't take cash on buses and you'd need to by a ticket from the machine or station ticket office with your cash. Thanks :)
I tried to register my Oyster card maybe three years ago, but couldn't do it because I didn't have a UK address. I wonder how it is now.
Probably the same....don't think they've changed it.
student oyster card or contactless card ??? is there any difference in the charges ???

@@LondonVisited thanks
i'm confused... i can or can not use a Visa card from an european country?
Yes you can, but just check with your bank first - as some may not!
@@LondonVisited ok, thank you. Cause yeah, i am going next year and i would totally buy the oyster card, but you changed my mind. Portugal doesn't have this kind of method yet, but yeah. If it's possible for me to use my visa card instead, that's really helpful.
Oh when you gave money to a machine or person or you had a season pass and just showed to someone or put it in the ticket 🎟 collecting machine. What still confuses me,very easy today, is why you have to sign out on the Oyster card or you get fined.
Hi Lesley, its so they know that the journey has been completed and charge the right fare. I remember the season ticket and piece of card that had to last a year..... :)
