BIXI service in Toronto

在多倫多,有一項設施很特別…
但我跟他…有點…不是有點…是很大的誤會!
(That's why I wanna have my own bike, don't use this rental bike anymore)

BIXI Toronto
只有在DOWNTOWN裡可以使用…


rent it by your credit card.
it will give you a code
then pick up anyone you want

有沒有看到 1 2 3
key in the code you had, and wait for green light on and take the bike off from the rack.


===RETURN===

就再把單車架上去,等綠燈亮…done!


有沒有看到上面的價格指示呀? $5/24h
是不是會以為 24小時內使用,就只要加幣5元呀?
錯! 錯!錯! 
意思是…24小時內使用,以加幣5元計算。。。
It's cost C$5 in 0~30mins, and plus C$1.5 in 31~60mins.
It's a big big big misunderstands!!!!!

再說…用信用卡去租單車時…
就會先被收押金 C$250+15% TAX=C$287
剛好,我有設定信用卡刷卡通知。。。。
Do you know how much I shocked?    A LOOOOT
Can't fall asleep totally!!  and I can't tell!!!


After two days, I got charged CAD again ( I can't tell).
I was shocked again!   why?  How come?
我以為我的卡片被盜刷,立馬請台灣的朋友假裝是我,打去銀行詢問……
查出來是同個公司  BIXI Toronto
got shocked more
why they charged me twice for a rental bike?  Were you kidding me?

我一緊張  英文就會結巴…所以我請hostel的店員幫我打電話問…
呼……
店員聽我比手畫腳的說了整個故事…很鎮定地說:ok, I call them for you. no problem.

#%&(*&)(*)(+_)(}()*()*&^^$%


店員Allen 操著一口很濃郁的英國腔,不修邊幅的打扮,一頭亂髮…
Allen : now It's no problem, they will return C$287 to your bank in 10 workdays.
          you can relax~
I : yes, I can sleep now.  Thank you very much.
Allen : Anytime!

<補充>
我想,這公司在冬天時應該會賠錢吧?!
大家都知道加拿大的冬天可以冷到凍死人,如果有人還在這冽冷裡騎單車的話…只能說他是神經病了


=============================================================
話說,Allen 和我們(Carol & Chin)真的有點 小故事…

前題: 我喜歡在hostel裡早起,因為,如果有人當天退房,且還有剩下的食物時,可以放在共用區,給大家公用。
所以,我早起時…會把那個牛奶啦、香蕉啦……佔為己有!!!

一天,旅伴 chin 也跟我早起…we went to kitchen together, and found 2 pieces of toast.
土司已經冷掉了,我們想說…它被遺忘很久了吧~ 應該是別人的忘記了,且走了。


恩,我們應該可以吃吧!   <<< 有沒有覺得我們是餓死鬼?


我們把起司和果醬都塗好了,放在自己的盤子裡…
正在大啖土司時……Allen was getting into the kitchen.

一臉疑或的看烤土司機…arh?  where is it?


本來和chin講好要裝傻的,但廚房裡面只有我們三個人啊!!! 
裝什麼傻?   根本就是現行犯啊!!!


然後,chin said : I'm so sorry, this is our toast, you can take any one you want!!!
(居然這個時後,chin的英文變溜了…)

我只有在旁邊一直笑……因為實在是太embarrassed (音: 因被瑞森) 尷尬了。


…想想,住在這hostel也有十來天了,chin應該沒有撿食物的天份。
I have gift on picking up the food somebody don't need anymore!
