Koji Inoue’s “Hints for Railway Travel”] If you lose your ticket, do you have to pay again or triple the amount? How to Avoid Lost and Stolen Tickets

Posted on 2024-04-162024-04-22 by Editor in Chief

What Happens If You Lose Your Ticket At the end of the paper timetable, there is a page that summarizes the business information of the JR Group. In the end of the paper timetable, there is a description of how to handle a lost ticket. In the Passenger Service Regulations, “Lost Ticket (Article 268 – Article 270)” under “Chapter 7: Handling of Change of Boarding, etc.” is applicable. If the staff member is able to “recognize the fact of loss,” that is, if the ticket is recognized as having been “lost inadvertently,” the ticket will be “reimbursed” with the same contents as the ticket that was lost. The same applies to tickets that have been stolen. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful not only for lost tickets but also for stolen tickets. Therefore, it is important to receive a “proof of re-collection” at the time of re-collection. Later, when a ticket is found that you thought was lost, you can get a refund if you bring the ticket and the proof of recoupment to the station (a handling fee will be deducted). However, it is better if you can avoid loss or theft. How can we do that? There are many situations in which tickets must be taken out, such as passing through ticket gates and in-train ticket checkpoints. Therefore, it is not possible to say, “Leave it in the box and you won’t lose it. In the event that the staff is unable to determine that the ticket has been lost, the fare shall be doubled in addition to the prescribed fare for the section already boarded, or in layman’s terms, three times the prescribed fare. Article 268: If a passenger loses his/her ticket after starting his/her trip, and the attendant is unable to authenticate the fact, he/she shall be charged the passenger fare and additional fare and additional charge in accordance with the provisions of Articles 264 and 266 or the preceding Article for the segments already boarded, and the ordinary passenger fare and additional charge for the segments already boarded. If the attendant can so certify, he/she shall collect the ordinary passenger fares and charges for the whole of the section boarded, and no additional fares or charges shall be collected.

Passenger Operation Regulations (How to handle lost tickets)

Why do things go missing in the first place? Why do things, not just tickets, go missing? The most common reason is probably that the person forgets where he or she put the ticket after taking it out of the box. Not only tickets, but also keys, wallets, credit cards, cell phones, smart phones, and various other valuables, and many other items that can get lost. I believe that the basic rule to avoid losing these items is to decide on a fixed location and strictly adhere to it. For example, always decide in which pocket you will put the keys to your home and car, credit cards and other cards, and wallet. Then, when getting off the train or leaving the inn, he makes sure that what should be there is where it should be. However, it seems that women’s clothing is not designed to carry things in pockets, and they often have to carry everything in a bag. In such cases, if it could be clarified what is in the bag and where each thing goes, it would not only prevent forgotten or lost items, but also establish a procedure for checking. There is also the principle of “putting things that are frequently put in and out of the bag in a place where they can be quickly retrieved. If items cannot be taken in and out quickly and easily, they will be put in an appropriate place close at hand, causing people to search for them later. Because of my work, I generally carry a camera bag with me. Due to its purpose, a camera bag has plenty of space for small items. In addition to camera equipment, some bags have a convenient space for tickets. Be careful, however, that the bag is not left open, and that it is properly closed with a zipper or something. If it is left open, the contents may fly out at any moment and go missing (according to an experienced user).
