Old pooch, more so, rather than kid.
I know they say not to put too much identifying info, but my pooch muzzle fur is now old (all) grey.
Anyone reading this, who still plans to use the AT Hop in Auckland for a while yet, if you know you can recharge it online, from Aust, via their (AT) website, and you touch your AT Hop onto a reader (non train entry reader) at Britomart, or at a train station fare reader (big stubby one), in Auckland, its not till you actually touch your card onto a transport Hop machine (slim thin stand alone reader) that the overseas credit appears.
The big stubby readers, at Britomart, didn't list my overseas recharge, but after checking my Hop account, it does list as the credit was added on my touch onto the small thin ferry standalone Hop reader.
One of our colleagues on here mentioned, that Hop will be phased out in 2025, good to know, so I can use down the credit on the card.
Nzd$58 left, AT Hop fares over there are so cheap.
