Opal Refund

What is Opal Refund ?

Opal system measures the distance customers travel based on where they tap on and tap off. A default fare which is maximum fare for the trip is deducted when your card does not record either a tap on or a tap off. If the cause of the default fare is due to a system error, Opal Customer Care will always look into the issue and adjust the balance if appropriate.

Opal Refund focuses on notifying these default or maximum fare trips.
