Just now I was on a bus, on a feeder service. When I saw a passenger come up and tap her card, it gave out an unusual two beeps instead of five. She is using a concession card.
Anyone knows why this happened? I remember hearing them saying things such as 'card got problem' and 'just put coins into the coin box will do.'.
Valid concession card
AND monthly pass expired
AND insufficient value in the card.
The 2 beeps are to prevent confusion with invalid concession card, which gives out 5 beeps. My guess is these 2 beeps are implemented following complains of BCs anyhow confiscate valid concession cards.
