Am I being dense, or has TfL changed the way Oyster charging works this week?
Normally, for example, an off-peak journey from Westminster to Kings Cross St Pancras would be charged as -£4.60 upon touch in at Westminster, and then +£2.60 upon touching out at Kings Cross St Pancras.
Looking at my journey history for Saturday 28 July, though, that journey was charged as -£2.00 upon touching in at Westminster, and then £0.00 upon touching out at Kings Cross St Pancras. Same thing for a couple of other off-peak journeys done last Tuesday.
My guess is there is a temporary change during the Olympics to avoid too many people being "over charged" due to failing to touch out properly, but maybe I am missing something?
