mine is 1 week and counting, didn’t even get a reply from them yet. Is the paylah network for refund still down? I don’t even have an ezlink card so I couldn’t choose an alternative. IMO, they should have another option for store credit at the major supermarket retailers.
my 20cents telling me bank transfer until now also didn't see anything... I think gone case liao... this 20cents i donate to their hospital bill

bought a drink, realized is 10c more ex, thought it was coz I bought the cold version.

later then realised is the 10c return.

when to machine, return, only accept DBS Paylah or SimplyGo ez-link card.

whip out my ez-link and scan, TMD, not accepted, coz mine is old type ez-link, cheesepie, got scammed 10c by pap.gov.sg

Stupid policy. It is not worth the effort to return the cans and if they increase it to say $1 a can, it is just going to piss people off and sales of can drinks will drop

Not everybody lives near a BCRS either and surely it doesnt make sense to put alot of BCRS machines throughout the country.

This is plain stupid

So much work for $0.10. Likely many won't bother. Soon the $0.10 deposit by companies will grow into millions. Who owns the account?

How come no MP come to take ownership of this project? They did not think it will be successful?
Last time nobody wants to help Sim Wong Hoo, Creative Sound Blaster to deliver sound cards, Ministers still laugh at him for being silly. Today, all PC and laptops even mobile devices are filled with sound.

ex minister: "Why would anyone want to hear sounds coming from their computer?"

NPNT but Daiso going to paste sticker + collect 10 cents for BCRS...just bought 2x Ito En Green Tea bottles :flash:
I think most likely other shops like Value$ and Daiso going to follow since SG sales volume would be low.

Uh ...

From somewhere in September all these shops selling in Singapore have to collect the 10 cents. Its not optional even for drinks they import from overseas

I know, duh. I was wondering whether they would stop importing or not. And now we have the answer.
