Thank you toddles.
It's my DD when she was 4-months young.
She will be a year old next month :love:

When I received my new posb everyday card, I was so excited.
The very next day I went to inquire about its use at the mrt station.
The station master advised me to top-up the card at the ticketing office and viola!
I'm considering giro, what do you think?

I'm still using my old ez-link card. my wallet is the bifold type - so I'll lift up the side with the credit card and make sure to only tap the old ez-link card side, else will have issues.

thanks - that's a great idea. now to get a bi fold wallet haha.

although I'm quite pleased that it will help me eliminate one card. now just deciding whether to manually top up or to apply for the giro thing. so few details online on the minimum top up amt, max top up amt each time etc.

oh MY! those cheeks! they are actually real!! hahaha... my dd also super CHEEKED at 2-3 months.

i initally thought giro was the only option, so was ready to give the $0.25 charge a go, if the top up limits made sense (i.e. not too low). considering that it might save some time and hassle. but if I can also manually top up, might do that first... after all, fares already increase, then added top up 'convenience fee' to the picture... bo kam guan.

And I had the same problem with the Kopitiam card which is also ez-link card... so I dont put it in my smaller wallet but in the purse so that I dont have problems tapping my card during travelling.. the only problem is when i go to kopitiam must remember to bring the card along :stupid:

that must be the new kopitiam card. my hubs has the old one and it doesn't interfere.

sigh. too many cards!!!

Didn’t realise got so many ezlink-compatible cards now…


received the new everyday card last week but haven’t used it yet.

can double as cash card to pay for ERP as well?

You can top-up your posb everyday card at the ticketing office (not machine) or apply for giro (direct debit from your posb account).

Sorry I have to qualify this sentence by adding \"if your posb everyday card is also your posb atm card\", which mine is, so I can't top up at the general ticketing machine but only at the ticketing office.

I don't think you can use it as a cashcard.
But for more details, you can go here:

though it says useable for ERP, but is DOES NOT, and ERP carpark do not accept it too…seen people got stuck half way at the gantry with the car, then borrow others’ cash card to pay …then reimburse cash

Hmm.. I didn't know that it's also an ATM card. I realised from the website below that it is supposed to be.

So it's a credit card, and an ATM card. And that means I can only top up at the ticketing office? Shouldn't be leh. the same site that says ATM card also says can top up at general ticketing machines at MRT stations...
