kpsa Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Also if you intend to use the subway then you should download the Seoul Subway app, super handy! Here is a video on how to download and use it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catelet Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Glad you found it useful! Yes, the Tmoney card was sooooo convenient. You can grab a bus, train, or cab anytime w/o fumbling for cash or your credit card! Just keep it well-stocked, and when you leave, simply cash in your card at the CU store again at the airport (that's what I did). There was only a small fee taken off for getting what cash I had left on it returned (you can only get your money returned at the CU store on 3 floors of the airport--any of them will tell you which floors (I don't recall now but it only took a few minutes) so make sure and go a bit early to do this--or, simply use it all up or nearly so if you prefer). Every time you use it you'll see how much you have left on the little machines at the subway or bus. I highly recommend it! You can refill it easily near the entrance/exit gates in the subway stations at any time of the day/night. You need Korean Won to do so though, so off and on you may need to change some money but you can do that at any bank/atm. There was an atm near my Airbnb (and many as well in the subway stations) that I used when needed for just this purpose! When you get on a bus, you simply run your Tmoney card over the little machine as you step on the bus, and you do so again as you leave through the back door. (similar to the subway). Most of the people riding the bus and subway use the Tmoney card. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the cab drivers accepted it as well! It's a win-win really.

aaroncandy Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I paid with my debit cảrd to avoid all limits set with credit card. It is convenient, cheap, and safer than paying cash. However, some clinics give u discount for cash payment (as they quit their responsibilities of tax i guess). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
