Free Oyster Card

MSE_Martin

What's the deal?

If you ever travel around London using public transport, an Oyster card is a must. Single tube journeys costing £4 cost £1.50 with Oyster, and bus single bus journeys are £1 with the card instead of (an outrageous) £2 without.

How do I get one?

Click through to the Free Oyster Card Promotion and fill in the form for your free Oyster. Do it soon, because the offer is limited to 100,000 free cards.

Anything else I should know?

The offer is only open to new customers, one card per person/application.

Maybe your postcode is a new one and not yet on the database they use.

Check via https://www.royalmail.com to find another local postcode and use that.

Or do you have more or less than the usual number of characters in your postcode. Do you need to add a space between the two parts - or take the space out?

Afterthought - and are you putting the postcode in the postcode box - there may be an unused line of the address above it.

I don't know how relevant this would be to most of you, but I am a member of the Lewisham library, and my library card is ALSO an Oyster card. I didn't have to pay anything for it, it's got my photo and everything, and I'm now carrying one less card in my wallet.

It might be a good idea to check with your local library to see if they have any such thing available.
