I'm on the beta and it seems to work fine for me - as mentioned, it's slightly annoying funds can't come from the travel wallet or a pass, but the functionality seems to work.
I agree that this seems more useful for occasional riders who I guess won't remember to bring their septa key (?) as the physical key works really well at this point.

That's fine, then start taxing those areas that want to do that. Wolf was trying to do that but the state wasn't having it.
It's annoying because the rest of the state is footing the bill even more than we already do from a pool of money that's desperately needed. When Leslie was still the PennDOT Sec, she told me PennDOT would need TRIPLE the funding they currently have just to tread water on bridge maintenance (and like 50% of our bridges are structurally deficient as it is).
And now they have even less because some small towns want police and don't want to pay for it.

> Btw you pay taxes so you pay for the state police.
Nah, that PSP budget is paid for from the motor vehicle fund, which is supposed to be for critical infrastructure maintenance. Municipalities that don't pay for local cops and rely on PSP instead are robbing the state of crucial budget for reliability and safety on our roadways.

Area is fine, standard fishtown/nolibs. Not sure exactly who has kitchens open at that time but just walk up frankford ave and I'm sure you'll find a bunch of places.

Reply to comment by estellato12 in SEPTA working out kinks in mobile phone ticketing feature by bengalese
Yeah, at this point I'm willing to just provide some data and it seems like the people this workflow is ideal for can use it and I'll just be using my key.
I don't really even care about mobile payment at all and hate the idea of my phone being a single source of failure, but some people apparently are super into it so I figure I'll just beta test since I'm on a few modes of SEPTA a day.
