hi guys i have problem activating my card at the GTM

im using the scb unlimited cash card, registered at abt site, received confirmation email, went to GTM but when i place on the system, it doesnt show any option for me to switch to Use Back, instead the normal selection screen with the options "Add Value" "Activate Ez Reload" "Check Card" is shown. i tried to tap into mrt, it shows "insufficient value".

Anyone have similar prob as me? Thanks!

wtf the abt helpline cant get thru one arggg

I have started using my CIMB platinum MasterCard since today. Works fine, except for showing the fare. When I keep it in my wallet and tap, it takes like couple of secs extra for the tap to register compared to Ezlink. Ezlink is much quicker. If there was no promotion I would prefer Ezlink with Citi SMRT than this ABT.

Today I started using my card and realised that when I tapped in the message is 'bank card used' but it didn't state the price of the journey when I tap out. Isit supposed to be like that

You can check your usage n fares with the link sent in the email from transitlink to activate your card with login and password. Trip usages will be updated a day later. More convenient and you can check them on the move. Of course if there is any discrepancy u can click one of the tabs to report.

not all trips are reflected a day later. my bus trips from 2 days ago still not reflected.

I accidentally registered for my debit card when i was withdrawing money. Then received SMS to ask me tap my card at GTM for activation. But i do not want to activate. That means i cannot tap my card at GTM for top up coz once tap will be activated for MasterCard Tap? :(

Dun worry, the GTM will ask you if you want to use bank card or EZ-Link for travel
