How does the elevator payment system work in Tbilisi apartment buildings, and why might the elevator key fob stop working?

In most Tbilisi apartment buildings, the elevator is maintained by a separate service company and requires a paid subscription (only tenants who use the elevator pay, not all residents). The key fob is issued by this company and access is tied to your account balance (e.g. in the 'All Service Group' system); if the fob beeps and doesn't work even with a positive balance, ask neighbors for the servicing company's name and connection details.
