 As of 31 March 2008, interchange is drastically restricted due to escalator work; TfL are recommending that the station is best avoided, but various commentators point out that certain interchanges are still possible. Interchange can still be accomplished at street level, though this can be quite a lot of faff. It's <i>likely</i> though not entirely clear that street-level interchange will count as a continuous journey for Oyster PAYG purposes. For more information, see [http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/media/newscentre/7763.aspx TfL announcement], [http://london-underground.blogspot.com/2008/03/no-interchange-at-bank-and-monument.html Going Underground blog post] (including the comments), and [http://londonconnections.blogspot.com/2008/03/how-bank-monument-falls-apart.html London Connections diagrams].
