Vodafone Fiji wishes to advise the members of the public that due to an unusually higher than forecasted demand of $2 disposable cards in December, it is currently out of stock on $2 eticketing disposable cards. However, we still have eticketing disposable cards available in $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100 denominations for the members of the public. We are working closely with our suppliers to have $2.00 cards delivered ASAP and the latest by 25th January.
The disposable cards were meant to cater for emergencies and one-off travel on the buses and to cater for visitors and tourists coming to Fiji.
All Fijian citizens are still able to register and collect a permanent eTransport card for free which they can top up for as low as $2 and use on a regular basis. Vodafone Fiji has so far issued close to 1.1 million permanent eTransport cards for a population of 840, 000 people and it is assumed that almost everyone in Fiji should now have access to the permanent eTransport card.
We, therefore, urge commuters to top up and use their permanent cards and not rely solely on disposable cards. The non-availability of $2.00 disposable cards does not entitle commuters to a free travel.
For more information on eTranport call 151 or customer care line on 124 for free.
