Is it worth it for a lawyer to sue MTRC for a handling fee of 0.3 yuan?

Generally speaking, it is worth it, because this is not only a personal matter, but also related to the interests of the people of Suzhou. If the lawsuit is successful, many people who have recharged can get compensation; if the lawsuit fails, the public can get an explanation and understand why this fee is charged.

This lawyer needs to spend his time, energy and even money to litigate the case with the subway company. Even if he succeeds in the end, he may only get compensation starting at 0.3 yuan, which is not cost-effective for him personally. But we have to see that the handling fee charged by the subway company is not just for him personally, but for all people in Suzhou who recharge their citizen cards through self-service recharge machines. A 0.3 yuan may not be worth it, and tens of millions of 0.3 yuan is not a small amount. Other places do not charge this kind of fee, but Suzhou does. It is obviously unreasonable and unfair. This matter is related to the vital interests of the people and must be taken seriously, and it deserves to be protected in accordance with the law.

We often talk about governing the country according to law, but what should we do in real life? For most of us, this is law-abiding. In this case, the lawyer sued the subway company and defended his rights through the law. This is obviously a concrete manifestation of the rule of law and is of considerable enlightenment. The people are the important subjects of governing the country according to law. We must be good at using legal weapons to solve problems in life, which not only safeguards the law, but also plays a supervisory role in society and even the government. This lawyer's sincere behavior deserves praise and encouragement.

This incident has actually aroused heated discussion, and even netizens are still debating whether it is worth it, because the 0.3 yuan service fee in the incident only accounts for 0.6 of the 50 yuan recharge fee, not to mention the so-called sky-high service fee . Many netizens also felt that the fees were reasonable and that the lawyer deliberately sued the subway company to make a big fuss. I believe that if MTRC recharges 50 yuan and charges 10 yuan or even 20 yuan, it is normal and worthwhile for lawyers to sue, and most netizens will support it. Regardless of the final outcome, this lawyer’s behavior and spirit are worth learning from. The subway company should also improve its operating services, be open and transparent in charging some fees, explain to the public that these are operating costs, and provide legal provisions to tell people that this is allowed by law. So overall, it's worth it to have a lawyer sue.
