Good news for the upcoming Raya celebrations. Road users travelling during the festive period can expect discounts on highway toll rates, The Star reports.
Works Minister Datuk Fadillah Yusof said 23 highway concessionaires have agreed to provide incentives to road users in the form of free toll, discounts and rebates. Maju Expressway (MEX) is waiving toll fares for motorists on July 28.
PLUS, which operates five highways including the North-South Expressway, will be offering a 30% discount for Class 1 vehicles paying electronically (PLUSMiles, Touch n Go, SmartTAG) on July 23-24 and July 30-31. Besides rewarding its customers, the PLUS move is also to promote electronic payment and encourage motorists to travel on non-peak days.
The toll rebate can be redeemed at all PLUS customer service centres from September 1 till November 30 this year. Note that the rebate excludes Tanjung Kupang, Bukit Kayu Hitam, Bangunan Sultan Iskandar and Penang Bridge toll plazas.

cerdik sgt.. 25hb x bg plak..
Avoid MEX on 28th Jul.
Sure lots of illegal street racers that time.
Why not auto rebate?
Yg bg free mex… hahaha… siapa yg balik kampung lalu mex?
Me, Coz my hometown in KL. :p
Pointless discount.
Discount should be given during the peak period.
What’s the point of plus giving discount for today and tomorrow?
Just “GIMIK” only..to show that PLUS is always care about customer. They think that all of us work at Mak Bapak punyer company…can cuti awal. Hampehh!!
If they care enough about the rakyat they will give discount or no toll at all during this raya season. But this is BN, go to the hell with tolong rakyat.
Yes…they think we are stupid??
25,26,27hb confirm trafik banyak org balik kampung , sbb tu rebate buat sebelum n selepas hari puncak
bodo korang nih
yea mereka cerdik. 25,26,27hb confirm trafik banyak, sbb tu rebate buat sebelum n selepas hari puncak
Tu la pengurusan PLUS yang letak otak kat lutut. Tak fikir masalah pelanggan…masih fikir lagi keuntungan utk mendapat lebih byk Bonus raya pada kroni2 nya…
Macam bagi tak nak bagi jer…sepatutnya bagi untuk satu minggu…baru la semua dapat faedah. Ada ke bg untuk pada hari orang masih bekerja..hampeh!!
Malas nak fikir … Paul, no need to cover this news!
ini namanya rebate tak ikhlas :(
For PLUS, they try to “encourage” drivers to travel during this rebate period to even out the traffic flow and hopefully it would be less hectic on 26 ~ 29 Jul.
I am not sure the mechanism of this rebate, if you need to again go to their office and “claim” for the rebate, FORGET IT …
you can encourage all you want….but
1. sekolah belum cuti lagi…
2. we already applied our leave some time ago
Leave must Apply 7 days before…so how people want to travel early today and tomorrow? Tarak Otak punyer orang..
ada bagusnya dia bagi rebat hari mcm tu supaya org yang nak rebat boleh balik awal sikit..dapat la kurangkan sikit jem pada 25,26,27..
Macam xikhlas jer..
Sapa nak balik kampung 23&24 Julai? Sekolah pun xcuti lagi..
30&31 tu ok la jugak..
Anyway, terima kasih
Every year memang macam ni. Memang semua hiway operators tak ikhlas… kalau ikhlas, discounted period must coincide with the dates where most vehicles travel to either balik kampung or balik rumah. People are not stupid anymore to fall into this wayang of “oh baiknya PLUS bagi discount”… the operators are mistaken. The minister also to be blamed as he (along with 90% of oour govt ministers) is extremely out of touch with the ordinary folks who will be thankful if the rebates are given during peak period.
