Anyone any idea what the latest position is on refunding an anonymous OV Chipkaart? I have one that expires on 1st November and I read that up to EUR30 can be refunded if I take it to an NS/GVB/RTM etc office, and I am charged EUR1 for this service. Some questions:
a. Can I do this after 1 November, or does the card 100% expire then?
b. If the balance is over EUR30, there is a form to send it back to Amersfoort and it will be refunded to a bank account. There is space for an IBAN number on the form, but presumably they won't refund to a non-Dutch IBAN account? And since I have to send the Chipkaart itself back and it will be pretty obvious what it is at least to the Post Office in Amersfoort, what happens if the card is 'lost'?
c. Will Amersfoort refund the card after expiry?
