Each card only lasts for 3 years (I think). You can take an expired card to Myki booth at Spencer St/Flinders St and they will transfer the balance to a sparkly new card for no dollars extra. If you had auto-top up set, then you'll need to re-start that using the myki website.
Got caught this way myself a couple of times, cos I don't lose my card.
Yea will have to swap it over. Just unfortunate it decided to expire itself 1yr before it was supposed to expire (according to the card account on the website, was only two years old).
