However there is an advantage with Oyster if you are making multiple bus journeys there is a maximum charge of £4.40 per day whereas contactless payment does not benefit from the £4.40 capped value.
Either way, nk55 can avoid paying the prices initially mentioned and not pay more than £8.40 (£7.00 on a weekend) a day if he used an Oyster.
The Key Cards are free, but certainly don't offer the level of fare discounts seen elsewhere - like London.
Do you get the same discounts with contactless payment, or is it full whack?
Edit: same price.
