Thanks for the reply. I’m actually quite familiar with Oyster in general, although it’s been two years since I was in the UK. And, in any case, I’ve just cancelled my trip due to the worsening Covid situation.
Yeah – I could just use my Oyster card (a regular one) but I guess I’m trying to embrace “the future” with contactless. It ‘should’ be easier so I thought I’d give it a go, especially as topping up the Oyster would also require a visit to an ATM at Heathrow first. I usually try to leave enough on there after each visit so that I can at least get into the centre next time, but it has been so long I don’t know where I stand. After my next visit I will register the Oyster card (not done yet) so I can check the balance and (I assume) top it up online.
I’ll let you know how the Greek bank card goes if I ever get chance to use it – maybe it’ll help somebody else.
