Hello everyone,
We wanted to make you aware that the DfT have directly confirmed to us that the new flexi-season tickets introduced yesterday will not be available for any passengers making journeys within the London travel zones 1-6.
The reason they give for why is because of the availability of Oyster and Contactless payments.
We wanted to make as many people aware of this as possible as we think the messaging so far has not very clear. Hopefully by flagging this with you all we are able to get the message out a bit further.
You can see the Tweet we posted on it this afternoon here: https://twitter.com/LonTravelWatch/status/1407354422540312592

Many thanks,Just to put it beyond any doubt, we've just had it confirmed from @transportgovuk that the new flexi-season tickets are not available for journeys inside of London due to the availability of Oyster card and Contactless payments: @BBCTomEdwards
