Attention! Improper use of iPhone card for public transportation may result in overcharge

At the end of March, the iOS system of Apple mobile phones was upgraded and the quick bus card function was opened. Many Apple mobile phone users do not need to carry a card when taking public transportation systems, and can travel with their "phones". However, recently some passengers found that when taking the bus, their Apple phones actually deducted more money.

The passenger said that he swiped his card when he got on and off the No. 851 bus a few days ago. When he transferred to the No. 939 bus, he swiped his phone on the bus and found that 3 yuan was directly deducted from his express transportation card. The passenger then checked his consumption records and found that he swiped his card when he got on and off the No. 851 bus, but the fare was not deducted when he swiped his card when he got off the bus.

The reporter later discovered that the situation of being overcharged for using express bus cards is not an isolated case. A passenger complained that he used the express bus card on his Apple phone to take the bus on *** days, and various problems always occurred when getting off the bus. "I couldn't swipe the card when I took the *** bus. Later, I finally saw that the system deducted one yuan, so I got off. The second time I used it, it didn't work either. I swiped it twice and it was directly deducted two yuan." The passenger said that the fare was originally one yuan, and he didn't have the energy to worry about the extra one yuan. Another passenger said that he used the Apple Express Bus Card for convenience, but was overcharged for two days. "I swiped the card when getting on and off the bus, and it's also in the record, why was there still extra money deducted?"

Regarding the situation of being overcharged when using Apple Express Bus Card, some passengers analyzed that it might be because they failed to swipe the card when getting off the bus, resulting in overcharges on the next ride. Some passengers also posted their experiences of being overcharged and their consumption records online, reminding other passengers that when using Apple Express Bus Card to pay, they must check whether the money has been deducted when swiping the card when getting off the bus to avoid unnecessary losses.

The reporter called the customer service number of the Municipal Transportation Card as a passenger. A staff member said that when using the Apple mobile phone quick transportation card to pay, because the data transmission takes two or three seconds, the phone should be placed on the card reader and wait for a while before removing it to avoid data transmission failure. If you encounter a situation where the ticket is overcharged, you can directly call the customer service hotline to verify the relevant information. In addition, when getting off the bus and swiping the card, you must avoid the driver's station change operation. This is because when the driver presses the station change button, if the passenger swipes the card at the same time, it is equivalent to swiping the card again on the bus, and the full ticket will be overcharged.
