That’s an intriguing answer, Richard.

A few years back, a murderer was caught because after killing his victim [a young north London lawyer] the villain was silly enough to use the deceased’s Oystercard the following day. When the authorities realised this, they were able to correlate the time of use with relevant CCTV records, and that was that. Murderer now in jail.

I am indifferent on the point, but if an individual annual Travelcard / Oystercard keeps records of all travel details, I am wondering why Boroughs do not get billed with all their Freedom Pass holders’ travel details too? Wandsworth would surely benefit from this, as chances are that most holders only travel in Zones 1 and 2; whilst an outer London borough like Croydon could well see travel across far more zones, and therefore more expensive travel?

Presumably the per capita charge you mention is a carefully negotiated settlement, and it would be better to leave undisturbed?
