Problems with payment system on changes made me worried about my next leg of journey for hours. Live ppl at station less than helpful (tho was able to communicate with the SM account somewhat)

I am not happy because the bus was late and after about 13 minutes I had to take a taxi otherwise I would not have made it to the plane.
