>>There are also some weird anomalies in what is accepted. For example a London Travelcard issued to a pensioner is but the near identical card issued to a student is not.
Not really anomalous, because for the 60+ the 60+ Oyster card applicant has to produce compliant ID to get one i.e.
- Details from your valid, machine-readable passport or your valid UK driving licence (full or provisional)
- A colour image of your valid, machine-readable passport. This must be in .png or .jpg format and be less than 6MB. The image must show your photo, personal details and passport number
- igital photo of you which must be a .jpg, .bmp or .gif file and be less than 6MB
- Debit or credit card registered at your address to confirm you live in a London borough and pay £20
whereas the student only needs a course welcome letter from the college to get the student Oyster card.
