OC Transpo Refund...MUST GO IMMEDIATELY!!
Hey!
Just a quick heads up to all you bus pass users or if you know someone who still has there December bus pass:
You can get a full refund for your December passes by going to CITY HALL ONLY! Bring your December pass and go to the reception desk. Ask for and fill out the form that you must then bring to any Transpo Outlet to obtain your full refund. You can then treat yourself or apply $20 of it should you so choose, towards a 3 week February bus pass(the first week of February is free - until the 9th).
Please forward this to as many as you know. The word needs to get out quickly because OC Transpo will only honour this until February 7th, 2009.
Have a great rest of the year everyone!
