Refund for e-Payment Service at Aberdeen Tunnel
Since the introduction of "stop and go" e-Payment service at the Aberdeen Tunnel in late September, the system had experienced some minor technical problems during the early stage of implementation. As a result, a small number of motorists using Octopus cards had been asked to tap their cards again, resulting in duplicated toll payments. The technical issue has already been fixed with the upgrading of the system software.
Having verified the current records, the following Octopus cards were found to be affected between 24 September 2017 and 19 October 2017. The Department has arranged refund to the following numbers of Octopus cards through the Octopus Cards Limited:
