So if you have not yet exchanged your EZLink card for the new one, do it now! Do not wait until the last minute. However, card holders may still get a refund on any remaining value in their old cards up to 12 years from the date the card is first encoded for use. But still... That shouldn't be the reason for the delay.
The following are some information which I think people might find useful about the EZLink card:
- The old EZLink cards have a $3 travel deposit "hidden" within the card. The new EZLink cards will no longer have a travel deposit, so you will be able to see the $3 reflected in the card value.
- For travels on MRT trains, you will need a minimum of $3 in your new EZLink card.
- For travels on buses, you will need to have in your EZLink card the minimum fare to travel from the point you have boarded to the last stop. The maximum EZLink fare for normal bus rides (excluding the special buses like express, premium, night owls, etc) is $1.65 as of now. You can refer to the respective buses website to find out information on the maximum fares.
- When you tap your EZLink card onto the reader and the green and amber lights flashes (normally only the green light will light up), that means you have less than $5 in your EZLink card.
