    Anyone knows how to purchase this one? I don't know if it is still on trial mode or something.

    Any opinion about this new RFID e-Pass compared to old ones?


    *not so sure if this is the right section to post this one. sorry!

    Go to their website for updates.
    A friend of ours bought one for us in SM San Pablo Laguna. Wifey activated it online.

    The unit is smaller. It can easily be detected by the sensor at toll gates. But the balance displayed at toll gates is not updated. Not the fault of the rfid though.

    +1 The website has the list of centers and outlets.

    It would be best to call first because sometimes they run out of stock.

    ^ Agree. It's best to go straight to their main office in Bicutan due to scarcity of units in some of their station. Besides, there's no need for you to activate the unit since the main office can do the activation for you right after the purchase.

    Just additional info, the new e-pass tags are on contract for 3 years, after 3 years palit ulit daw unit at bayad ulit ng tag fee. In my case nabili ko last month nung 999 sya. Pero yung luma ko na tag almost 10 years na gagana daw yun until masira, walang expiry. Until 8pm bukas office nila sa Bicutan, mas kaunti tao pag dumating ka kahit 7pm na.

    My old epass lasted more than 10 years too. Inisip ko nga sinabotage nila yung epass ko because it just won't die Yung mga old epass hirap na nga basahin.

    Check your statements too. They often have errors. Around last month, I had 2 transactions where I was charged double the amount for Calamba exit. They are quick to reverse naman.

    ^ thanks for that info's. Wow, overwhelming naman sir e-Pass tag nyo, lasted more than 10 yrs.
    Anyway upon my research, I got this info's

    Rolling out new RFID ePass 2014 news
    more affordable ePass 2013 news

    *how RFID works

    Maganda sana kung ma-merge nila sa lahat ng Expressways..

    It cost P100 per sticker daw eh, but the great thing is you don't have to register again for your another car. Parang bili ka lang ng sticker kung ilan tsikot mo pero sa isang account lang mag-ccharge lahat. Ganito din ba sa mga old ePass tag?

    Sir, saan pong part ng SM nakakabili ng RFIDs? Matagal na akong nag iikot sa SM Batangas kaso wala namang sign or posting about RFIDs or E-Pass.

    No. Your tag is specific to a car. In the past, they even had signs that you cannot switch your tags to other vehicles.

    You can't use your Epass at SLEX.

    For NLEX, it's a different device.

    E-pass for SLEX and EC Tag for NLEX. Same design and maker yung unit nila for the latest design White for EC Tag and gray for E-Pass. Magkaiba lang siguro yung frequency nya.

    May RFID na rin ang Cavitex, easydrive, bukod pa yun sa etap. Sana pagisahin na lang nila from NLEX to SLEX to Cavitex.

    Kaya naman nila integrate yang different systems na yan. Kaso sabi nung dati kong boss, yung bussiness and legal matters ang magpapahirap para gawin yun. Mejo nagdebate pa kami kasi may yung experience ko sa Japan eh different companies (JR, Toei, Metro, etc at ngayon ata sa Osaka din) pwede halos same card (SUICA gamit ko nun). Yung IC card na yun, pwede din sa canteen namin, sa 7-11, sa bus, etc.

    Sabi ko nga kung gusto may paraan.

    august 2014 na!!! nasaan na ito RFID ng SLEX??? still on testing phase pa daw!!! paka tagal naman na testing yan... common sense tells me pinapaubos ninyo muna iyong epass tags bago ninyo ibenta iyong sticker... laking loss kase sa inyo, P1800 sa tag compared to P100 sa sticker!!!

    ang pinas nga naman wala consumer protection

    Yung easypass na RFID ng Cavitex how much ba per unit? Meron na akong e-tap pero the RFID would be more convenient lalo na kung mura rin.


    No news pa rin sa SLEX yung RFID although halos lahat ng exits nila may mga e-pass/RFID lanes na with matching labels. Hassle kasi sa epass tag may bateryang nauubos tapos hindi user friendly ang pagpalit. Pag dinala mo naman sa kanila, buong tag ang palit plus bayad na ng bagong tag imbes na palitan lang ng baterya. Sasabihin nila sira na daw yung old unit eh alam naman ng lahat na nauubusan lang yun ng baterya.

    P200 ang easydrive ng cavitex... ang funny thing lang eh di aandar ang easydrive ng cavitex sa nlex kahit na same operator lang ang nagpapatakbo...

    P200 breakdown = 1 RFID sticker na sila mag kakabit para sure babasahin ng remote reader nila + 1 backup eTAP card just incase mag fail yong RFID sticker

    suggestion ko syo, keep the eTAP muna... at least yon proven tech na...

    sa USA ideal model kase, wala palit palit ng batt, dispose agad... pinoy lang naman ang maparaan...
    (kaya hirap kumuha ng USA certification, puro mali ang maparaan na ways ng pinoy pag dating sa sagot sa exam)

    sana i sale na lang nila ulet iyong epass tag, di kase ako bumili nung sale P999 tag kase anticipating ko yong mas mura RFID sticker, wrong move...

    ^

    So Easydrive is good lang pala for Cavitex.

    Tsk, akala ko pwede na sa NLEX, or sa SLEX.

    I use Cavitex and SLEX daily pa naman. And NLEX, once every 2 months.

    Salamat sa info.
