Submission + - Apple Pay users could be fined if their battery runs out on the train (betanews.com)
Mark Wilson writes: Apple Pay caused ripples of excitement when it was announced, and just the other day it found its way across the ocean to the UK. The contactless payment method transforms iPhones and Apple Watches into cardless way to pay for low-cost items with little more than a tap.

Transport for London has issued a warning to travelers pointing out that if their battery dies, their journey could prove expensive.
