Ezlink Card After You Graduate
Students may continue to use their customised ezlink cards as an Adult Farecard after they graduate from the Polytechnic for a period of five years instead of the normal 6 months. The followings serve as a guideline on the procedures :
- Current concession card has reached its end date? - You may continue to use the card as an Adult Farecard for a further 511 days.
- What you need to do at the end of the 511 days? - You must re-activate your card during the last month of the 511 days to extend its validity for another 511 days until the card reaches its full five years.
What to do if you face problems extending your card?
Call TransitLink Hotline at 1800-2255-663.
What if students forget to revalidate their cards?
Their card will expire and cannot be used. But they will be able to get a deferred refund on the remaining value that is on the card.
For more information on the Tertiary Student ezlink card extension, the affected students can contact TransitLink at their toll-free Hotline at 1800-2255-663.
