FAQ

I have lost my card — what do I do?

Block it in the personal area of the website (“Gestionar tarjetas”) or through the support channels. Then you can request a duplicate at an in-person point, paying only for the card (€4.50), and recover the ticket if it was still valid or had trips left.

Official wording
