I got two little kids and I going in in June... hahaha... so try to prepare lar... having 2 bawling kids with a non-working card is quite jialat... I also don't want to be the one getting cursed from behind......another reason to go through Tuas side, the MY immigration counters don't block anybody behind.

Oh really? I thought Woodlands side also the same configuration like Tuas... I haven't been through Woodlands for more than 10 years by car... only by bus for work trips...

I've done and checked all I can, the most important making sure TnG not expired and the MyS app loaded and set up. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormers64 Neutral Newbie May 17, 2022 Share May 17, 2022 @teomingern Your TnG needs to do a top up if you haven't use for 1 year or more( non active). Once top up. it will be active...provided card is not expired... Suggest to pass card to your frens who's travelling to do a top up at petrol kiosk before you travel. Cheers.

So, I arrived my KL hotel more than an hour ago and the stressful "what ifs" never came off. Out from Tuas, no problem, but i'm obviously out of practice, managed to stack myself behind the one e-class with four people inside. Took ages. Anyway to 2nd Link side and handover passport, tapped the VEP and job done. Last time I used the car was like 3yrs ago, long before the pandemic, but expiry is 2026 so there was no hesitation in taking off the RM20, Malaysian style, don't care too much about everything else so long as i can take your money. I tried the first toll booth to top-up and the guy two-cars in front managed but me and the one before me, no - shift change. So off to Petronas for a top up then non-stop to hotel. I've forgotten Malaysian penchant for closing one lane of the highway in multiple locations but this time a nice steady slow speed - first time seeing static speed cameras plus the usual guys hiding behind bridges so, unusually, I can walk away from this one without a ticket. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro... just to clarify... you didn't use your TnG card for 3 years and it was inactive before you used the card... was your card ever linked to the TnG e-wallet app? Or your card is un-linked and it just got re-activated when you tap on the Road Charge card reader? Appreciate clarification! Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or your card is un-linked and it just got re-activated when you tap on the Road Charge card reader? Appreciate clarification! Thank you! I didn't use the card since before COVID. The card is added in my app a long time ago, maybe 2020, hence i confirmed the expiry date which is, anyway, written on the back of the card. There is no way for me to top up the TnG card via the app, the card is too old, but can add the card anyway to the app - my colleague just did that last week. Just checking now..... I had RM20 in the eWallet when i came into MY but now is RM17 since it took RM3 for the SMART tunnel. Card is better linked to my eWallet than I thought but I had added RM200 to the card on 2nd Link and don't know what SMART took it from the eWallet instead. Strange. As i say, my colleague just added his card to the app last week and it shows his balance and expiry as well. I have no idea whether it being linked to the app or not means it will work or not for VEP. My assumption always was that if there is money on the card, and it has not expired, then it can be used - i know there was a rule about losing any balance in the card if not used for a year (something like that) but best in any case is to get the app. We will need it at some stage, just about everything in KL can/must be pad by TnG. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
