I did touch off at South Geelong. But thanks for your post, because I did a check on my Myki history and it did say something about resetting my defaut fare. Maybe criss crossing on the city loop without passing a touch on/off point messed things up.

For example - Melbourne Central - you touch on and travel to Southern Cross and then get train at Southern Cross to South Geelong with out leaving the paid area.

It should be a Zone 1 to 4 fare off-peak fare- have you ring or email PTV, ask them a refund yet?

The system should work out : Melbourne Central or any other city loop station is Zone 1 and South Geelong is Zone 4 :

• If you are travelling between   Geelong (zone 4) and  City Loop station (zone 1),  fare should work out  as the following (4-1+1 = 4 zones).

or

Melbourne to Lara : $3.58
Lara to South Geelong : $2.10

$5.68

Note all fares are the current 2014 fares.
