Ladykillerz 4th Gear July 1, 2009 Share July 1, 2009 In the first place, always make it a practise to have at least two cashcards in your ride.. The back-up card at least S$20 fund.. If you got a fine, try to appeal thereafter.. Good Luck~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless on official business and can claim mileage, parking & ERP, I steer clear of that horrendous area! If next time no choice you have to drive there again, maybe you'd like to park at the public carpark behind Timbre or next to the substation. Tha's where I always park when I go Funan or anywhere around that area. Can save quite alot lidat. Dunno about the $10 charge lei, think must write in or something...

Weihui Clutched July 1, 2009 Share July 1, 2009 If you are a Singtel Mobile customer, just sign up the ERP VAS thing. With this free registration, free monthly subscription backup, you will only be charged $4 instead of $10 if you passed through a ERP gate without enough balance in your cash card. You may also sign up the DBS direct debit your credit card service but there is a monthly subscription fee incurred. If you are not a frequent ERP passer, I don't see the need in it.

First hour $1.5. Subsequent hours @ $1. If you'll be parking the whole day, consider the valet at chjmes. I remember it being cheaper by a bit but I'm usually too lazy to park there instead. (If I park there just to save $2, I might as well take a bus). Parking at timbre is free after 5 pm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pentrain Clutched July 1, 2009 Share July 1, 2009 bro..tuesday nite i went pass the CTE (town towards braddell) ERP, with my cashcard in...but it did not deduct..gave them a call immediately that nite..wednesday morning, they called me and said that it was some error, and they know that my cashcard is in and can also tell me the value of my cashcard..so i won't be fined.. so i guess the best thing for u to do right now is to give them a call and check if there is anyway to avoid the $10 charge??? they are quite friendly though..haha..

If his parents can afford it and buys him a car, who are you to complain? Work harder and buy your child a car in the future instead of complaining about "rich parents".
