The 4:21 pm QM2 bus never arrived at 20th Ave/Whitestone Expressway + MTA BusTime app is down @NYCTBus @MTA

Not a single @MTA notice of #SIM10 service changes for #VeteransDay #veteransdayparade not on bustime website, nor the crapp, nor any notice service via text or Xwitter, nor @NYCTBus @NotifyNYC nor @nyc311, but I do know 5th Ave was shut down & no bus arriving at 5th Ave stops

20d

The bus tracker on the @MTA app being down is ruining my life please fix it I’m begging you

You can always count on @MTA not working

Lol @mta app being down right now. New York’s metro system is a literal joke

MTA Maryland telephone number not working. For information. Wonder what the new number is. 410 539 5000 rings no answer. Last week rings and busy signal. Use to have people to talk to for information. Shocked the number is not working. Passengers need to call for information.

5 train car #6934 going uptown has no Air. This is so sad because I always pay my fare. MTA please do better. Service the train when something is down. @MTA @NYCTSubway @NYCMayor

bruh mta wifi needs to be banned. my ohone just randomly connecting to it slowin my whole vibe down

**** you @MTA how is your service so ******* **** but yet you want to increase subway fares when the 2,3 & F train are ALL DOWN MID WAY WHILE IM TRYING TO GET HOME. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE. **** YOU

MTA going back to their daily power outage days, I see

Another day, another MTA power outage 😵‍💫

Power outage for the 2nd time in 3 days on the same train lines going to work? @MTA @NYCTSubway 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

The MTA had a power outage today and a lot of people got delayed, commuting? But Mercury Retrograde/astrology isn’t real right?

Second day of a new #heatwave in NYC, 92F at noon. My clothes hanging on the rack outside dried in 30min. Five subway lines are down due to an MTA power outage. My flatmate turns on the oven to 400F to warm up a savory pastry. I’m waging a small campaign on #systemoverload.

According to @mta documents, looks like cbtc (computer-based train control) that’s shut down service last summer on parts of the G and nights and weekends this summer won’t happen until 2029 (pushed back from 2027) because of contractor delays in retrofitting cars to 5G.

Is anyone else having issues with their Visa cards not working with the OMNY tap on the MTA ????? Bc at this point the MTA is literally just stealing money from me lmaooooo. This is why ppl hop the turnstile.

**** THE MTA ITS BEEN A WHOLE 12 HOURS AND UR STILL NOT WORKING BFFR I NEED TO ******* GET TO WORK DAMMITTTT AAUUUUGGGHHHHH

If it’s 1 thing I miss from NY it’s the MTA (with all their faults) runnin 24/7 because what do you mean DC metro shuts down at 1am on a Saturday night

Hey @mta your #omny system is down, again. I have one day left on my 7 day card purchased last Thursday, and my omny card is being rejected. I've got an eye out for the inevitable class action lawsuit heading your way. Can't wait. #mta #nyc

Mta workers dont even let u get a pass in this hot *** weather and after walking out of a different station from a POWER OUTAGE or whatever delayed the r train

is @OMNY not working at all today. i’m trying to pay and put money on my card unexpected error keeps popping up. yall want me to pay for the mta or not

Can the @MTA @NYCTSubway tell me when the D train (Coney Island bound) will arrive at Atlantic Ave? All your realtime services are down.

X is broken, NYC mta is broken, market is down.... life is good. Luckily i have a beer waiting for me at home.

The L train is down again .. @MTA I both paid my fare AND have to pay for a car to get to work.. when can I expect a refund for services NOT provided? 😒

Is cellular service at 14th (1/2/3) currently down? I’ve been through there a few times today and have had issues on both my phones (ATT and VZW) @NYCTSubway

Plus the escalators on the 7 at Grand Central not working. What is the excuse? @NYCTSubway @PassengersUnite
