Digi card...

[Upatdawn]

Can an employee use a companies digi card whilst waiting for his own to arrive?

In short, no, when driving you are required to use your own card

If its your 1st Digi card I believe you are required to wait until the card arrives before driving a vehicle with a Digi tachograph, however if you have been issued with a card and it becomes faulty, you can drive for two weeks after its reported, taking printouts daily

What are company cards for then?

I will add, that whilst I have a digital card, that I havent ever used it and that I have virtually no idea at all how they function or how you use a digital tacho.

be careful how you carry your card as well, when I first went to use mine it was faulty due to putting it in my wallet next to my bank card, apparently this can cause static between the cards & cause it to fail as it did in my case.

And remember to have it with you, cos you got one you need to be able to produce it.

For the company to download information from the tachograph in the truck, and then uploading to their computer

It's 5 working days, not 2 weeks.

It's 14 days...

I believe they aim to get a new one to you within 5 working days.
