So you know about this ongoing MetroCard Vending Machine problem, yes? Well, it seems that an encryption device is to blame. This problem, ongoing since Monday, has basically knocked out the MVMs throughout the city, and people have had to resort to cash-based transactions. For those pay-per-riders out there, now would be a good time to look at that EasyPayXpress thing the MTA’s got goin’ on. For everyone else, we’re stuck waiting for a fix.

“Whenever your EasyPay Xpress balance goes below $30, your credit card will be used to replenish your account. If your credit card declines the charge, a late notice will be sent to you.”
Tempting!
