  its a very very queer senario... how come they can always take note of losses they made, but they never know they are over charging people... or do they actually know but keep mum about it??? so overcharging just say sorry can liao? good business to do leh...
  
  

  SBST is infamous for such things. They overcharge and keep quiet until someone finds out and makes a scene out of this. Had the whistle-blower not mentioned such things we'd never know too.

  You mean you will never know?
  
  Look at 151, the end FS to KVN is 31 while at Kent Ridge is 32. It is obvious for some services.

  Service 26 and 31 problem did not arise until 26 amended its route in that area. I have noticed this problem but it kinda slipped out of my mind.

  Actually, 26 is undercharging.
  
  If you take 8, 31, 90, 142 to TPY from SGN Road, it is $0.68-$0.83. While 26 is $0.63 What the?

  It's due to the route along Whampoa North.

  I think the discrepancy is due to the extended route at Upp S'goon Rd towards Kent Ridge.

  Don't they mean the same? (I think you mean Serangoon Rd)

  Ok, let's just say the junction of Jln Kolam Ayer, Upp Serangoon Rd, Macpherson Rd and Serangoon Rd.

  Did a "spot check" as someone said that 151 had +1 FS. It should be minus 1 as it overcharged at Jalan Toa Payoh.
  
  At Opp POSBank, the FS is now 11 instead of 12.
  
  So now end FS at NUS is 33 and end FS at KVN is 31. Strange?
