    Because testing has only started since September 20, station staff must always be on duty to guide people on how to use the service.

    However, it was noted that on the morning of September 21, many passengers over 60 years old could not pass through the ticket gate when using a chip-embedded ID card. According to the explanation of the station staff, there are times when the device cannot read the QR code in the old type of ID card (the old type of QR code is smaller than the ID card issued in recent batches - PV). When encountering this error, the elderly can receive free tickets at the counter to go through the ticket gate.

    The rate of people using identification technology, electronic authentication and biometric identification at the testing gate on the Cat Linh - Ha Dong metro line is not high. During the testing process, Hanoi Metro will record feedback from passengers, perfect the technology before expanding to other metro lines in the future.

    Hanoi Metro hopes that through this experiment, it will bring passengers a safe - convenient - environmentally friendly experience. New technology not only changes travel habits, but also contributes to enhancing the image of a modern, integrated and sustainable capital.
