SEPTA will give you a reimbursement or discount because of the strike

Reimbursements for SEPTA pass users who effectively lost money during the 6-day November strike:
Holders of eligible [i.e., unpunched] weekly TransPasses -- usually honored on buses, subways, and trolleys -- have until Dec. 31 to turn them in for new ones, SEPTA said. Those with monthly passes should finish using this month's pass, then surrender it to get a $20 discount for a December, January, or February pass.

Eligible customers may use any sales location, SEPTA said. People with passes obtained through an employer program or a pre-tax program, however, must mail in their requests along with their passes.

Punched passes will not be honored. The punch indicates the pass was used to ride the Regional Rail system, which remained in operation during the strike[.]

[ ... ]

Those using employer or pre-tax programs to obtain passes should submit the pass by mail to: SEPTA SIP Refunds, Box 58609, Philadelphia 19102-8849. Be sure to enclose a note with contact information, including an address.
I'll probably re-post this message or at least put up a reminder -- mostly for myself -- at the end of the month.
