Cos transferring between the same service is NOT considered a qualifying transfer and therefore DOES NOT qualify for a rebate.Originally posted by deBRA:Hi, I take bus 190 or 187 in the morning for one stop to send someone to school and then I will take 187 in the opposite direction to Woodland to work.
I realized that if the first bus I take is 190, I will have a rebate on the second trip which is normal, BUT, if the first bus I took was 187, the secod trip I made, which is also 187, there is no rebate.
Why is this so ?
We still tap our EZ LINK card and pay the same amount, NOT A QUALIFYING TRANSFER ? I am suprised !!Do I have to skip 187and wait 190 to have a QUALIFYING TRANSFER ?? What's the logic behind ?Originally posted by Yusry:Cos transferring between the same service is NOT considered a qualifying transfer and therefore DOES NOT qualify for a rebate.
Taking 187 after taking 187 is considered starting a new journey.Originally posted by deBRA:We still tap our EZ LINK card and pay the same amount, NOT A QUALIFYING TRANSFER ? I am suprised !!Do I have to skip 187and wait 190 to have a QUALIFYING TRANSFER ?? What's the logic behind ?

Everytime i top up my ezlink or whenever i find an empty Add Value Machine or General Ticketing Machine, I would not hesitate to check my deduction of my bus fares, especially now when i'm not on concession. When i was on concession, its no sweat taking buses..Originally posted by FireIce:eh.....can i hijack this topic?
how many ppl faithfully check the amount (w/ or w/o transfer) deducted from their ezlink card eberytime the alight the bus or exit the MRT?
i used to.....but always lost track then can't be bothered liao.....
and, if anyone experienced b4.....how prompt and easy is the claiming thing? efficient or u have to provide lengthy details of ur trip.....write report blah blah blah.......
