				2-way GO bus ticket
			 
			
		
		
		Hi everyone, this may be a silly question, but I just recently found an old two-way GO ticket from spring 2010 with one trip not being used. With the changes to PRESTO and the removal of certain kinds of tickets (i.e. 10 way), I was wondering if GO would still sell or at the very least, accept my two-way ticket from 2 years ago.

				Unused GO 2-ride and 10-ride tickets 
 
With the discontinuation of GO 2-ride and 10-ride tickets on August 1, we are making some exceptions to our regular refund policy. Please read on to learn how you can receive/determine the balance of unused 2-ride and 10-ride tickets. 
 
To convert ticket balance to PRESTO... 
 
bring your 2-ride or 10-ride ticket to any GO Train station attendant or PRESTO-enabled GO ticket agent 
PRESTO requires a minimum load of $10 for activation. If your balance is less than $10, you can simply pay the difference when converting. 
option available until December 31, 2015 
learn more about PRESTO. 
Determining the balance: 
 
2-ride ticket - full ticket price* if unused, 1/2 of ticket price* if one ride has been used 
10-ride ticket - 1/10th of ticket price* per the number of unused rides 
*Ticket price is the original purchase price printed on the ticket 
 
 
For cash refund of ticket balance... 
 
bring your 2-ride or 10-ride ticket to any GO Train station attendant or mail a complete refund request form to the address indicated up until October 31, 2012. Forms are available online and from station attendants; the 15% administration fee will be waived. 
To exchange a balance of one or two rides for an equivalent single-ride ticket or day pass... 
 
bring your 2-ride or 10-ride ticket to any GO Train station attendant 
only applicable for same-day travel 
option available only after July 31.

		You can bring in unused rides (2-rides/10-rides) to Compass in the Student Centre, and we will convert that amount of unused rides onto a Presto card    
Also, if you load 10$ or more, you get the Presto card for free (value of $6) 
 
Hope this helped!
