Why is there money in the bank card, but the SMS says ETC is in arrears?

There are several reasons why there is money in the bank card, but ETC shows that the balance is insufficient. For example, if the deduction amount is greater than the balance in the bank card, the bank card is a time deposit instead of a current deposit, and the system fails during the deduction, it may show that the balance is insufficient. Users only need to check in advance that there is enough balance in the bank card to pay the high-speed fee. As for the system failure, it will generally recover itself.

ETC(Electronic Toll Collection), translated from Chinese, means electronic toll collection, which is an automatic toll collection for highways or bridges. The vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield of the vehicle communicates with the microwave antenna on ETC lane of the toll station in a special short distance, and the computer networking technology is used to make background settlement with the bank, so that the vehicle can pay the highway or bridge toll without stopping.

2065438+May 19, Dai Dongchang, vice minister of the Ministry of Transport, said that after canceling the provincial toll stations, it is necessary to ensure that the utilization rate of ETC reaches over 90% before the end of this year and ensure the smooth operation of the whole road network.

On April 28, 2020, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Transport said that after the provincial toll stations of expressways were cancelled at the beginning of this year, vehicles did not display the full toll amount in the ETC exit lane, but provided cost inquiry service by pushing information or bills, but some people put forward opinions on this. In order to meet the public demand, local transportation authorities and highway management units organized and implemented the ETC "Feixian" project. At present, all the exit lanes of the expressway can display all the tolls of this trip.

ETC is an electronic automatic toll collection system for highways, bridges and tunnels that is being developed and popularized internationally. This technology has a long history of development abroad, and the electronic toll collection systems in many countries and regions such as the United States and Europe have been partially networked, and economies of scale have gradually formed. Undoubtedly, China's expressway network toll collection method with IC card and magnetic card as media and manual toll collection method is also influenced by this trend.
