Looks like a system issue, as contactless payments arent being accepted, but Swift cards are still usable.

On 6772 at the moment.

When a bus is transferred does the ticket machine go with it or stop at the original depot, probably more relevant to country wide transfers

With NX transfer, the Ticket machine goes with. Judging by 6944 which was transferred from YW to BC and the journey was recorded on Bustimes.

Strange how you said it was a transfer but @Tony didn't say anything?...

Yes, 6944 is a transfer, The fleetnumber isn't in the ticket machine on NXWM vehicles, hence why it's extremely rare for buses to track as incorrect fleetnumbers, so even if the ticket machine is removed and replaced at the new garage like 4609 was when it moved to Walsall it still tracks correctly
