  1. You give them a card number & they credit it to your metrocard – I think they send you a new metrocard & you may have to do a photo for it. (Mine’s a senior card so I have to.) Then you use the card & any time the money amount drops below a certain figure they add another $10 or $20 to it & bill your credit card. The really weird part is that you get a statement of the month’s activity saying things such as, Boarded D-train at 7:35 a.m. on such & such a date. Very eerie & Big Brother even though we all know the cards report that data.

  2. Dave, I may be mistaken, but I think you can only do automatic refills with a monthly Metrocard, and you can only buy them through the MTA’s website. Very convenient, I agree.
