So ayam and my friend did some calculations because no more 30 days unlimited travel pass, we found out that after the weekly/30days discount, it is more expensive than using it without pass mad.gif (although it is just slightly but it is absurd when you're expected to save money when subscribing these weekly/monthly discount but instead the difference is negligible)

correct me if i'm wrong, but calculations are based on 20 days (monday - friday, 4 weeks, including return)

I don't get it why we need to pay them the card fee.
Are they going to charge us for not queueing to buy ticket?

And if I use touch and go? Will it be considered cash less? Needs card fee too?

Using the card only ( they call it cashless ) is cheaper than the monthly /weekly passes probably

The WHOLE public transport system is a joke, i need a bus ride + train to reach college, and i spend 1.5 hour averagely a day on the road

personally while using the unlimited 30 days pass it was pretty worth it, but now shakehead.gif sweat.gif doh.gif doh.gif

I preferred touch n go card instead.
Usable for toll, some shops, lrt, ktm. Compared to rapidcard which limited to their own services. Yeah its a joke too.

Lol~ replacement classes on sunday is kinda sad... sweat.gif
but yeah if it's from Monday to Sunday then probably you'll save somewhere around RM10 per month... but still it's way too less that what we can save with the old pass cry.gif
