§ 4

An authorized cardholder is entitled – on the basis of agreements concluded by the Association and European Integration Foundation in Gdańsk – to demand discounts and other considerations referred to in the Discount Guide from the institutions mentioned therein. In the case when a subject mentioned in the guide refuses to give a discount, the cardholder is entitled to lay a claim against him and inform the Association about this fact.
Some discount givers reserve themselves a right to lower the amount of discount or to refuse a discount in the case of paying by bank card.

§ 5

The representative of the institution that accepts the card may ask the holder to present an ID card to prove the identity of a person using the card. The holder should agree to this request.

§ 6

Taking advantage of discounts and considerations gained by the card editors in other countries shall take place in accordance with the rules set by them and included in the discount guides appropriate to individual countries. The cardholder can obtain information about discounts and considerations available in other countries in places described in the Polish Card Discount Guide.

§ 7

In the case the card gets damaged or worn out, the card holder is entitled to have this card replaced with a new one. In the case of damage or loss a duplicate card can be issued directly from the Association for the price set in the price list. The expiry date on a duplicate is the same with that on the card damaged or lost. The holder, to whom a duplicate is issued, is not entitled to any additional insurance rights or other considerations as a duplicate is only a proof that the rights he acquired before continue.

The person, whose rights expired due to the grounds mentioned above, is not entitled to reimbursement of the amount of money paid for the guide and the card.

The provisions of these Rules shall not apply or shall apply accordingly to the scope regulated by the documents mentioned above.
