What rim tape is it? And are you sure your tyres is free from debris?
Did you inflated the punctured tube to see where it pop from and look for where it happen on the wheel?
(This is easier if you lined up the tyres logos with the valve holes).

The rim tape is arguably not the best; it's plasticy, that's why I'll be getting new ones tomorrow as well. Every time I had a flat, I checked the tyres and rims and they we're pretty much spotless.
I've lost count/memory of where the holes were. Last one was on the inside of the rim, so where it touches the rim tape/valve holes (which would indicated shoddy rim tape?). The last hole was tiny which deflated the entire tube in under 10 seconds.
I'll be getting some better rim tape and tubes and will thoroughly clean the rims and tyres and we will try again.

An (inner) tube related question:
My tubes keep popping when the bike has been stationary for multiple hours (sometimes a whole night).
The rims and tyres (although pretty worn out) seem clean and debris free and the rimtape is securely in place. The inner tubes are probably the cheapest on earth; could it be as simple as buying better tubes and if so, which do you recommend?
Thanks for reading.
