Helpful tips on using EZ-link Card

To those who always use ez card. Like to bring to your attention on
local bus service provider.
Nowdays, everyone use EZlink card for transportation. Normally, when
you board the bus, you flash your ezlink card and move in and when you
get down the bus, you flash your card again at the exit door ( located at
the middle of the bus ). We all know that if we forget to flash the
card, full fare will be deducted from the card.

Below is something not known to public:-
But if you alight from the front door ( the entrance ) and you flash
your card while exiting without informing the bus driver, the card will
capture another entrance fare instead of exit fare thus meaning that
two full fares will be deducted from the card as no exit was being captured
for the two entrances.
For example, you board a crowded bus at Pasir Ris ( where it terminates
at Jurong East ) and decided to get down ten stops later. If you flash
your card at the front door without informing the bus-driver, a second
entrance fare will be captured instead of exit fare thus you are paying
for two full fares ( 2 X $ 1.90 = $ 3.80 ) instead of one fare (
approximately $ 0.83 ).

This is a useful info.

Here's the solution :-
Go to the "big" machine (ie machine for U to top up the card) located
at the MRT stations.

1) Insert your EZ link card
2) Press the function key "Check card"
3) Press "more"

The above function will show U the last 20 transactions. Information on
the fare deducted, bus no, boarding time and the boarding and alighting
point will be reflected on the screen. Hope the above information is
useful to U.

Please pass this email to people you know so that they will not pay
extra charges for nothing and burn a big hole in their pockets.

Last but not least, call the hotline line : 1800 767 4333 when the
incorrect fares are deducted.
