Dublin Bus Travel 90 card - went through the wash!

Ahhh,

Had my travel 90 bus card in my trousers which I put in the washing machine, just discovered the remains, it's still intact but ait's mostly white now, all the colour and laminate faded away.

Had 6 or 7 journeys left, annoying!!

What are the chances it will still work ??

Newportlad,do NOT try to validate it in the usual manner on the remote reader,but instead ask a Driver to check it on the Ticket Machine.

If the chip can still be read,the Ticket Machine will dislay it's status without actually deducting a journey as it would on the remote reader.......Fingers X'd

Didn't work in the end unfortunately, tried today and not a beep from the card reader:(

Driver laughed and advised me to just buy a new one, he did give me a free lift into town tho!

Thanks all for the replies:)

Go to DB head office and they may be able to give you a partial refund.
