Heads up, motorists. Just a few days before the dry run of the cashless system (aka purely RFID) system on major expressways, one of the most convenient places to get both the Easytrip and Autosweep system is set to close.
The Shell Magallanes management has announced that they will discontinue RFID stickering for both Autosweep and Easytrip systems starting on Friday, September 1 in a bid to “streamline and enhance [the] experience when visiting Shell Magallanes” as well as to “provide a more efficient and convenient service for all customers.”
The decision by Shell Magallanes to remove RFID stickering at the station shouldn’t come as a surprise, especially to regulars who often visit the service station. The stickering kiosks have become a common cause of traffic and congestion in the area. Vehicles often occupy what little parking spaces the station has; regularly spilling over to the streets adjacent to the station much to the irk of Magallanes Village.
With the close of the Shell Magallanes as a stickering station, motorists will now have to queue up at two different locations just to get an Autosweep and Easytrip RFID.
For reference, here’s the most up-to-date stickering venue for both the RFID systems:
i think it would be better if there is rfid kiosk at the car dealership. it will lessen the hassle.
ReplyDeleteyes, a very easy solution and yet dealers do not offfer this
DeleteToyota Alabang releases units with RFIDs and initial load
DeleteNow that everyone is going RFID can toll operators handle the load, pila pila ulit parang cash lane. Same same Lang
ReplyDeleteMalls would be one of most convenient places to get these RFID stickers installed. SM Manila have a big kiosk near one of their upper parking levels. No idea though if it's still operating.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of way to load your rfid card, like GCash and others Apps. This will lessen the hussle to pila pila
ReplyDeletePaano kaming mga taga malalayo at hindi pa gumagamit sa mga expressways (halimbawa taga ilocos). Hindi na ba kami makakapasok sa expressways by September halimbawang may biyahe gamit ang cars naming walang kabit na rfid ?
