That's serious. Many of us do not even bothered to look at the
panel, and many of us do not bother to check our easilink
transations. For me, I had checked only once.
Can you show us your last 3 transactions? I would like to know if
it captured a complete (boarding and alightting time) 157
transation. And I would like to know if it captured a complete
(boarding and alighting time, or none) of 88 transaction. And what
is the boarding time of your 56 transaction?
I am not familiar with the operations easilink system, perhaps
someone can tell me:
a. If a bus changed its services number, example if SBS9367H
previously was operated on SBST 56 yesterday, and today it operate
as SBST 88, did the bus captain need to configure/set anything on
the easilink panel?
Perhaps the bus captain of SBS9367H did not reset the easilink
system on his bus to Servie 88? And perhaps there is a time lap
(bus captain did not set the time) between the reall time and the
time on the system, and that's explain your rebates?
[however I would feel the easilink system
should be using its common system time, and not the time register
on each easilink on each bus]
And you have to retap again while alighting from SBST88, could be
because you had really mis (not intentionally, but the panel just
not sensitive enough to register your tap) the tap while
boarding.
If easilink system still require manual operations from bus captain
to perform necessary settings/configurations, I must really check
my easilink transactions more frequent.
Just a sideline question, do SBST and TIBS still have bus
inspectors going round Singapore to check for bus leakages? I have
seen none on TIBS buses, and I have only seen them on SBST buses
many many months ago. Perhaps it's time for me to dig up all my
coins......., what's the lowest fare to pay by cash???
