This is how a lot of transit cards work, unfortunately.
- chii 8mo agoif i recall, in singapore, the transit card costs are refundable. I think that's the only place i've seen it refundable.
- jsmith99 8mo agoLondon oyster cards also offer a refund of your pay as you go balance.
- hdgvhicv 8mo agoI suspect most people just use contactless nowadays, Especially infrequent visitors.
- williamdclt 8mo ago> Especially infrequent visitors I don't know a single resident who uses oyster (maybe kids? Dunno, I don't have kids in my social circle), infrequent visitors are actually the only ones I've seen using oyster and that's because they thought that was the only way to use transport
- Symbiote 8mo agoMany, many people use Oyster cards for monthly or annual passes.
- shiroiuma 8mo agoThey're refundable in Japan too.
- consp 8mo agoMost of those (used to) work offline too, as long as there was money on the card. Not something an online payment system or app needs to deal with.
