Cabcharge eTickets
Charles Darwin University has changed to using Cabcharge eTickets, these are single use cards which reference to the University’s account electronically. There is no writing of dates, time, trip details and fare values. When the card is swiped via the EFTPOS system, account and trip details are automatically captured. The driver will print a receipt for the passenger to sign. This receipt will be retained by the driver together with the used eTicket.
A second copy of the receipt must be obtained for university records.
Important: As from 8th August 2008 the maximum value to be charged against any one eTicket is limited to $100.00
eTickets are available on request from Accounts Payable via completion of Cabcharge/eTicket Request/Authority (.pdf, 71.7KB)*. The custodian is required to complete their details and sign, acknowledging that eTickets must be treated as cash and stored securely at all times. The cost centre manager provides a cost code for charges incurred against the allocated eTickets and authorises the number of eTickets to be issued to the Custodian. A separate form is required for each cost code and each new request.
eTickets are valid for twelve (12) months from date of issue to the University. Accounts Payable hold a supply of eTickets therefore the period will be less than 12 months when issued to custodians. We therefore recommend that custodians only request the amount that will be used by their area within a six (6) month period.
Any changes to custodian’s details or cost code must be notified to Accounts Payable via completion of Cabcharge eTicket Amendment Authority (.pdf, 71KB)*.
eTickets have an expiry date and can be cancelled if lost or stolen. In the event of loss or theft, ascertain the eTicket numbers and report the loss or theft immediately. During business hours contact Accounts Payable on 8946 6262. After hours phone Cabcharge direct on 02 9867 9903 or fax 02 9332 9270 and advise Accounts Payable of action taken on the next business day. The University is liable for any eTickets used prior to the time of the report of the loss or theft to Cabcharge.
