Why have they stopped the cheaper bus fare if you use your bank card?

Before it was 4 pounds all day if you used your bank card on the bus [National Express West Midlands] to pay but more if you paid with cash on the bus. Now it's 4.50 for both options since they put up the fares 😩

If you are only travelling in the Sandwell & Dudley or the Walsall area (one area per day), then you can use [Swift Go](https://www.tfwm.org.uk/swift-and-tickets/swift-go/), which will beat the 50p price rise and cap it to £4.

Its already like that on the bus if I take 1 bus and back from my area then it's 4 but if I take more buses then it's 4.50 for the whole day even though it's the same bus company for each bus I catch.

Do you travel outside the Sandwell & Dudley/ Walsall area?
