This is a very big promotion.
SBS Transit Christmas Double Promotion
Terms and Conditions
The SBST Christmas Double Promotion comprises of 2 events that will
run concurrently:
Christmas Lucky Draw (the "Lucky Draw");
12 Days Before Christmas Online Auction (the "Online
Auction");
1. LUCKY DRAW
1.1 Qualifying Periods, Draw Dates and Last Date for Prize
Claim
a) The promotion period for the Lucky Draw is from 4:00am, 12 Nov
2005 to 11:59pm, 2 Jan 2006.
b) The Lucky Draw will be held on 9 Jan 2006 and the results
published in a selected newspaper and the SBST website at a later
date.
c) The last day for the collection of prizes is 1 Mar 2006 by 12:00
noon.
1.2 Eligibility for Lucky Draw
a) All ez-link trips made on SBST buses and SBST trains (NEL, SKLRT
and PGLRT), with fares deducted from Adult ez-link cards, Senior
Citizen ez-link cards, Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Student
ez-link cards or NSF ez-link cards during the qualifying period as
stated in 1.1a are eligible for entry for the Lucky Draw. Primary,
Secondary and Tertiary Student ez-link cards or NSF ez-link cards
with e-stamps are also eligible for entry for the Lucky Draw.
Customers using shareholder or employee passes will not be entitled
to participate in this promotion.
b) The promotion would be administered through the issue of
Transit Dollars to customers equivalent in value to the fares
deducted from ez-link cards and Transit Tokens for e-stamp rides
during the promotion period.
c) Transit Dollars and Transit Tokens are issued by SBST at
SBSTs discretion for the purposes of the Lucky Draw and Online
Auction. They do not have any monetary value and can only be used
for the Lucky Draw and Online Auction as stipulated by SBST.
d) The eligible trips shall be allocated 1 chance for each Transit
Dollar and 1 chance for every 2 Transit Tokens remaining at the end
of the promotion period. For example, an ez-link card with $50.61
Transit Dollars at the end of the promotion on 2 Jan 2006 will have
50 chances of winning. Hence, the more a customer travels on SBST,
the better the chances of winning.
e) The Transit Dollars or Transit Tokens accumulated on one ez-link
card shall not be transferable to another ez-link card.
1.3 Issue of Transit Dollars and Transit Tokens
a) Transit Dollars are automatically issued upon complete entry
and exit processing at the Entrance and Exit readers and fare gates
according to the deducted value of the fare received by SBST (i.e.
fare net of transfer rebate and fare apportioned to NEL). For
example, $0.39 Transit Dollars would be issued for a deduction of
$0.64 less transfer rebate of $0.25 from the ez-link card on a SBST
bus. Users of concession e-stamps will not be issued Transit
Dollars but are issued 1 Transit Token for each complete trip
instead.
b) For an MRT trip from Orchard to Little India, only the portion
taken on NEL, which is from Dhoby Ghaut to Little India, will earn
Transit Dollars. Users of rail concession e-stamps for such a trip
will earn 1 Transit Token.
c) On services listed in Annex A, bonus Transit Dollars and
Transit Tokens will be issued. The total Transit Dollars and
Transit Tokens to be issued in this case will be equal to twice
that of other SBST services. For example, $0.78 Transit Dollars
will be issued for a deduction of $0.39 from the ez-link card on
service 174, which is listed in Annex A. Users of concession
e-stamps will not be issued any bonus Transit Dollars but are
issued 2 Transit Tokens for each trip instead.
