Having it with us before we left Australia meant we could use it on the train the minute we landed at Heathrow Airport at 6.10am! Just one less thing to worry when you are tired and jet lagged. As feared, this diappeared quite quickly however loading the cards with more money was not as much of a problem as we were expecting from reading other reviews of the product on this site

The car service as suggested by janisj is okay also but again it's a matter of convenience against saving some money and I can see both sides of the argument. As noted, if you want to use the 2 4 1's you need a ticket validated by the national railroad system...a paper ticket issued only at national rail stations such as Victoria, Paddington, Waterloo, London Bridge and the like

Can I return and get a refund for the Oyster card, upon leaving? If so, can that also be done at the Underground Station at Heathrow Airport?

What is the most time efficient way to go from Gatwick to "Old Billingsgate" ( Monument tube station is nearby)? Public transportation is preferred over taxi. For your destination possible options include: Gatwick Airport to London Bridge by Thameslink, then walk across the Bridge and you are soon there (for this route see note below) Gatwick Airport to London Bridge by Thameslink, and then change to a Southeastern service to Cannon Street, which is closer (and on the proper side of the Thames) to your destination (for this route see note below) Please note that from Saturday 20 December 2014 to around January 2018 there will be a major work starting soon at London Bridge, which will mean that Thameslink services will NOT stop at London Bridge station
