This is a very good experience to share. Personally, i only insert the cash card into the IU only when the display prompt me how much to pay. Once deducted, i will remove my cash card from the IU to prevent double deduction. So far its always like this for me. Who knows the system got hay wired. The ERP parking system will detect the IU first follow by calculating the number of hours and mins that your park and show on the display. Hence, if there is no cashcard in the IU the system would not be able to deduct amount. Hope this helps bros here.

Happens to me once when I send my wife to work at Mapletree Business City.I left within the 10mins grace.My card still got deducted for a dollar plus.

Ask my wife to find out from the management office.They say can't find error from their system.So ask me to print out the transaction receipt to prove to them.Did what they told & email to them on the spot.I received my cheque of a dollar plus back [:|]

Don't trust those grace time period system from then on.

Alternatively....only top up $10 each cash card. For the car use only.

This way, max deduct is $10++.

 

Keep another $50 in your wallet.

 

 

then u have to constantly top up your cash card..... back to square one.

 

just for that once or twice in a year kind of event, u have to slog

 

let it go...

Increase of public car park prices in Singapore

As most should know by now, the recent debate on parking charges have been raging on- some agree, some detest it. Despite public backlash on the new revisions, economic experts do agree that the changes are quintessential like the demonetizing of the 1 cent coin, and were only a matter of time before increases on parking were imposed.

 

Love it or hate it, here are the top few-must knows to get you up to speed.

 

 

White Lots Price Rise

Instead of the usual fee of 50 cents per half hour, the revision has mandated that all white lots (unless stated otherwise) will charge 75 cents instead. All other lots have changed revised prices too.

Scrapping of 50-Cent Coupon

In accordance with the new price revisions, the 50-cent coupon has been rendered obsolete. In the recent APFL press conference, economics expert Soh Ching Chye has argued that "Singaporeans cannot afford to be sentimental as the 50 cent coupon is on the verge of obsolescence" and that "the transition will be as, if not more, smooth than the demonetization of the 1 cent coin".

 

During the press conference, APFL unraveled the new coupon denominations to replace the 50-cent coupons, in hopes that the new changes ensure a more proficient system of coupon parking.

 

As such, all 50 cents coupons will not be valid after the pricing revision takes place.

 

We will miss you, old friend.

 

Note: Any driver caught using the 50 cents coupon after the revision will receive a $40 fine.

 

 

 

New Coupon Denominations

 

In accordance with the island-wide parking price revision, coupons will also face some changes, specifically, the 75 cents fee. As such, new denominations have been created to fulfill the place of the 50 cents coupon, and have been touted as "simple but effective" improvements.

 

 

The pricing is as stated.
