Had a day in that there London on Tuesday, went around using contactless and had no issues other than a journey from Battersea Power Station to Bank, having touched out at Waterloo using the gate line and following signs to the W&C there is no further gate line to get back in and must've innocently walked straight past the card reader. When I got to Bank W&C station there is a gate line before the travellator and told the woman there that I'd not touched in at Waterloo so she said to ring TFL. As it happened it just recorded my journey from BPS to Bank as one and I wasn't penalised, but it's so easy to make a mistake.
Another thing, we went on the DLR from Tower Gateway but went in the back entrance (not under the dome) and again walked straight in. It was only when we were on the train that we realised so we got off at Shadwell and returned to Tower Gateway to touch in. Funny thing is that there was no gate line at Canary Wharf so could've easily had a free trip. Although a few years ago there were inspectors on the DLR, if they'd have caught us between TG and Shadwell would they have been sympathetic?!!
