The week is ending and the long lines to complete the in-person procedure to register the SUBE card at different train stations continued this Friday.
And although there is time until the 31st to do so, and avoid paying more for tickets, starting next week the Ministry of Transportation of the Nation had more spaces,
while the online system is collapsed most of the time.
Since Tuesday, when the minimum bus ticket went to $270 and the train ticket to $130, users began to wait in long lines of several hours at stations such as Once, Moreno and Tigre, where service tables were set up. in person.
The increases that began to take effect in the AMBA groups are 270%.
Thus, with the new values the minimum ticket (between 0 and 3 kilometers) is $270;
the section from 3 to 6 km $300.78;
from 6 to 12 kilometers, $323.95;
trips from 12 to 27 km, $347.15;
and more than 27 km, $370.18.
When it comes to trains, fares rose by 170%.
Specifically, section 1 (0 to 12 km) costs $130;
section 2 (12 to 24 km), $169;
and section 3 (more than 24 km), $208.
Those people who do not have their nominalized SUBE card, that is, registered in their name,
must pay a fee of $430 and $260,
respectively, from April 2.

Finally, the social rate for beneficiaries of retirements, pensions, Universal Child and Pregnancy Allowance, among other plans, will continue to provide a 55% discount on values.
In general, the same characteristic is observed in the different service stations:
few people to serve and long lines that occupy platforms, stairs and entrances.
From the Ministry of Transportation they indicated that "the long lines at train stations (this week in Once, Tigre and Morón) are registration points that serve as support for the usual means of registration, they should not be seen as the main means to achieve card registration".
They added that "the website presents abnormal saturation as a result of the massive number of people entering at the same time and can generate temporary intermittencies in terms of its stability," and they assured that "work is being done to optimize it."

Regarding the charging of balances, although inconveniences were also recorded in businesses and charging points, they indicated that "there is no problem regarding that."
What is happening, as Clarín learned
,
is that many businesses are left without balance due to the increase in demand due to the increase in rates.
