Title: Metrocard Refunds
Post by: JHALUM on October 25, 2020, 09:11:01 PM

Has anyone ever submitted a Metrocard to the MTA  for a refund and been successful?  Several years ago I had a card that became unreadable and it still had almost $20 on the card and about two months ago another Metrocard  became unreadable after one day and it still had about $35.00 on the cad.  In both cases I had  all the information that was requested including the receipt and and after I sent them in I never heard anything.  Is this  a lost cause and should I put less money on the per ride cards in the future?

I've had to send it in a few times when a card expired with money still on it or became unreadable.  It take forever but I've always received it.

Yes I done it before and got my refund but it takes a while.
