Discussion | Beverage Container Return Scheme BCRS

[pohw0008]

Already mentioned i did own experiment and it doesn't work

I saw someone after he scan he just throw it all the way into the machine.. there's nothing blocking it.. also got many of them the belt not moving already.. so got to ownself throw it in.. once it drop in cannot return already..

Can only blame their system for being stewpig, keep on scanning same container oso can

The machine should alert loud loud till the whole blk can hear if after scan one time no can/btl drop in within 10 sec.

The alert should make it as loud as siren sound to make the person sia suay

Saw like this couple brought like 6 or 7 HUGE bags
Full of bottles
One bag like 40 to 60 bottles and each is packed full to the brim

Of course once they do their returns, you can forget about your turn
Later I looked at machine
From less than 50% they maxed it almost to the full

Maybe they are doing restauranting
Cos don't look like dumpster diving

But why must accumulate?
Hit 1 bag or 2 then just clear
Not accumulate and spend 30 minutes clearing
I laugh at such people when machine is spoiled

Assume 1 bag 5 dollars.. 7 bags 35 dollars. Half hour to take back 35 dollars.

How many cans roughly sold a day in a store?

Australia got cheap car and petrol. Like Europe. SG car and public transport so ex.

Don't know what you mean
You can't hover in air and scan
It WON'T SCAN
If you hover in air by putting can way inside there will be error message saying your hand detected

Don't know how to throw it in if belt not moving
There's something at the end blocking can from dropping into its "home"

The economics of it is good

I seen some eateries charge like close to $2 & some $3 for a can drink
I assume it comes with a cup of ice.
Not sure

At those prices there's no 10 cents surcharge I can see from.their system
And why charge when prices already so high

They probably snookered diners by telling them to return cans and when they return I guess staff earns the cash

I seen the staff in not so hot eateries bringing 2 large bags of cans to machine
Think close to 100 cans
Not sure is it 1 day's worth but still good for her

Some farmers are kind and humble. They will stop feeding in if there is long queue

This is what i mean.. scan then throw it in..

Once the video is out there will be thousands of them doing it like that.. how they going to catch them all.. only way is to stop the machine and patch..

I thought they will weigh the can first before accepting? Thats why need to empty out the can right? So quite surprised this cheat can work

Maybe they removed them to make it easier to recycle.. else alot of rejection.. probably not very accurate..

There a video now viral which show a guy throwing in plastic cups and paper cups into BCRS machine

This needs to be investigated

This make bcrs machine look like dinosaurs...

the developer did consider stinkie pattern, dump 50, but only record 49. it is a fire that is harder to extingush.

The alert should make it as loud as siren sound to make the person sia suay

Should have metal arms shoot out to grab the person until police arrives to unlock it.

Finally got people caught on camera doing this hack.

This machine is from oversea and the people there already doing this hack for years. NEA blindly brought in this machine without patching.

Now got a more serious case
