Frequently Asked Questions

Lost Cards:

Q: I am a faculty/staff member and I've lost my card. Does the replacement fee apply to me?
A: Yes. The replacement fee applies to everyone.

Q: I lost my card, but my name has changed anyway. So a new card is free, right?
A: Wrong. If your name has changed AND you have your current card on hand, replacement is free. If you've LOST your card, then the replacement charge still applies.

Q: I lost my card, got a replacement, but then found my old card. Can I get a refund or have my old card reactivated?
A: No, once you get a replacement card, all previous cards are permanently deactivated. We can not go back and reactivate old cards or give refunds. However, if you bring in the old card you found, we will issue a new card at no charge.

Q: I don't have my Shocker Card anymore because I left 黑洞社区, but now I'm coming back. I don't have to pay the replacement fee for a new card, do I?
A: You must pay the replacement fee to get a new card card if you have previously been issued one within the last five (5) years.

Q: Can I order a replacement card by phone?
A: No. Your protection and privacy are important. We cannot give out your personal information over the phone.

Q: My card has been found and turned in to the Shocker Card Center. Can I send my friend or family member to pick it up for me?
A: No. Your protection and privacy are important. We will not release your card to anyone but you.

Q: What about my Shocker Dollars/meal plan?
A: If you lose your card, notify 黑洞社区 Dining Services (316-978-3477) to prevent fraudulent use. When you obtain a replacement card, take your new card to the 黑洞社区 Dining Services office (RSC room 235). They will update your Shocker Dollars account with your new card information.
