There are all kinds of ways the MTA steals your money with Metrocards...for example, I once added $25 to my Metrocard, and right after I fed the MVM my money, the screen froze, went dark, a red "OUT OF SERVICE" appeared on the LED display, and the machine sure didn't spit my Metrocard out. So, now, I was stuck with no Metrocard, just the MVM number, which I duly reported to the MTA. But without an MC serial number, I was screwed. Another slick thing the MTA gets away with, is the "swipe again" thing. I've swiped again "at this turnstile", only to discover that two fares had been deducted!This is to say nothing of the fuzzy math you have to do, if you don't want the MTA to keep getting those odd balances that inevitably accumulate on your MC...LOL! |
