TransLink disables multiple services after ‘suspicious network activity’ detected

TransLink is continuing to investigate suspicious network activity that the company first announced on Tuesday. Miranda Fatur has more on what systems have been impacted.

By

NEW WESTMINISTER (NEWS 1130) — Some “suspicious activity” has disabled a number of TransLink computer systems.

Network problems have been ongoing since Tuesday morning, meaning TransLink users can’t use credit or debit cards at Compass vending machines — or use credit to tap to get through the fare gates.

Stored value may also take longer than usual to load onto a Compass Card.

You can still use cash at the vending machines and TransLink has increased the number of staff members around to help until they solve the problem.

Online services, like the Trip Planner tool, have been disabled, but the Google Trip Planner remains available.
