Everything was fine until I had to change credit cards. It first blocked it saying I hadn't used it for transit. Then, I removed it and tried again and now it's saying the card is invalid and to contact my bank. The $1 pending transaction always goes through, so what is the problem? I contacted customer service but no response.

this app is basically only good for managing your opal cards. I regularly use Strathfield station and half the time it doesn't list the trains that are coming and leaving. it's made me late countless times waiting for a train when I could have simply taken another that wasn't shown in the app. You are better off using the screens at each station than trusting this app.

Fix your app. Doesn't work. Session timed out so I tried to reset my password since I can't remember it, won't accept security code on the back of the card and keeps telling me something went wrong. Absolutely useless...
