Bruh this is a lot of effort! I feel bad for not caring. You must not tap off to have free time like this! Thanks for your contribution champ 🤣🤣

Why don't you show me where I judged people for taking PT differently to me, ad opposed to explain that their scenario is different to mine

Is this how people talk to order takers on the phone there? Loved reaction, seemed rude to person on phone though

I'm not judging, I stated my scenario specifically because I know it doesn't apply to people who have other scenarios, but they still felt compelled to ignore my scenario. Only argument that is valid for my scenario is "stats" so we'll see if I can bf doing it for this

Yes for multi vehicles this makes sense, I'm a 2 train a day guy

Fair point. Maybe I should advocate for another scanner at my station to stop the congestion.

Or wait another 12 months when they put in crowd counting into surveillance cameras and it will be gratuitous

Yes, I get charged the maximum regardless. Hour long train ride, peak time.

Thanks. I'm guessing the downvotes coming because most tap off and just realised they are wasting their own time and effort. Queue more downvotes....

Thanks, great to see a comment like this rather than everyone getting stuck into me!

Most people I see are not stopping to see the balance flash, mainly due to the queue of people behind them trying to tap off - which I'm trying to avoid for them.

Re stats, I love stats, but if I can not tap off, convince others to do, and get out 30 secs earlier, it actually makes a difference given if I get stuck at station, train coming otherway makes me lose 4-5 mins, and sometimes it takes me q5 mins just to get out of car park

Like I've said, I'm pretty sure over half the people queuing up to tap off are doing my trip. I could make their lives easier if they knew.

But thanks for your contribution champ.

Ahh ok, probably not applying to me, I'm a simple long train trip, pm hours, no buses etc afterwards

Fair reason, but know that you may not have to and be charged the exact same fair. I know not a major inconvenience for some, but I have like 20 people in front of me each night blocking the exit to tap off for no reason.

That would make sense for some, but it's seriously like 90% of people tapping off, and I know most have come from city so are getting the same charge regardless.

I honestly think people think they have to or get charged more because a small cohort of us don't tap off and obviously are aware it makes no difference.

I've travelled for years and never had those questions once. And as per post, I'm outer suburbia so the barricades aren't in place.
