Do impera use fast tags on the tunnels only 2 or 3 times on saturday they blocked the exit to woodside waiting for someone to come from mersey tunnel to give them money to go through the barrier.

They do yeah, although fast tags are quite temperamental if they're not positioned correctly at the front of the vehicle.

I was on the 31 on Saturday afternoon around 12pm and i thought it was weird that the driver paid to get through the tunnel, he drove to an attended toll as well and went the long way to woodside, i wonder if their fast tags have ran out of date or something?

Fast tags are linked to a specified bank account, so they never become out of date, they only stop working if there are insufficient funds to pay.

I have never noticed this when I have seen there buses at tolls normally they go through as normal so must have just been a odd one that had no tag or something I suspect

They say that it's unconfirmed: https://www.facebook.com/WirralNewsbeat/timeline
I imagine that they will update this if/when it is confirmed.
In the mean time, it may be worth looking for other sources.

This company does seem to have rumours floating around about it regularly, so I would be skeptical until something much more concrete can be found!
