Damage Card Fee Effective July 1, 2008

Damaged Cards: Damaged cards can be replaced at the CarolinaCard office during regular business hours.  A card is considered damaged when any of the following may apply: the card is broken, bent, holes have been punched in it, it has been misused (for example, torn, chewed, etc ), or warped from the heat (dashboard, clothes dryer). There is no fee to reprint cards that need to be replaced due to normal wear and tear and/or where the magnetic strip no longer works due to card quality. Damage will be accessed when the card is presented for replacement and it will be up to the discretion of the CarolinaCard office and its management if a fee is assessed. Damaged cards will be replaced for $25.00.  Once a new card is made, previous cards cannot be re-activated nor will the $25.00 fee be refunded
