  8. Reimbursements
    1. Is it possible to request reimbursement of Roma Pass 72 Hours and/or Roma Pass 48 Hours?

      According to art. 59 paragraph 1 n) of the so-called "Consumer Code", referred to in art. 52 and seq. of the same Code, the Consumer should be aware that THE RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL IS NOT APPLICABLE. The Consumer, in fact, should be aware that since the Roma Pass Service Contract refers to products and services related to leisure, such as ADMISSIONS, for which the supplier is committed to provide these at a specific date or in a specific period of performance and/or services that are, inseparably combined with others, by their nature, the right of withdrawal referred to in art. 52 of the Consumer Code is not applicable.
      Instead, the right of withdrawal can be applied only with reference to distance selling of services/products DIFFERENT from Admission, unless such goods are not listed in categories for which the right to withdrawal is expressly excluded by art. 59 of the Consumer Code. In such case, the Consumer may legally cancel within 14 days from the purchase date, with an explicit declaration of the decision to withdraw from the contract.

      Specifically, Zètema does not provide any refund of Roma Pass purchased in case of cancellation by the customer, errors in the purchase or failure to use the card for problems not attributable to Zètema, as well as, in case of damage, theft or loss of the card (see FAQ 8.4).

      No refund will be made even in the event of total or partial closure of some services/sites included in the card; in case of events or circumstances beyond the control of Zètema or dependent on third parties;; in case of Acts of God; in case of union meetings or strikes; for adverse weather conditions or in any other case or circumstance not indicated in this list.

      All cards purchased online can be collected ONLY 24 HOURS AFTER the date of purchase (minimum time required to process your payment). No refund will be issued for wrong early withdrawal. No refunds will be issued, also, for cards purchased online but not picked up within the given time frame, that is to say 6 months from the collection date indicated during the online purchase, or within the date of any possible change in the selling price or services included in the card itself (see FAQ 5.2).

      However, if a refund is to be granted with the final decision of Zètema, in extraordinary exceptional cases, the refund will be made exclusively by re-crediting to the Customer's credit card. No refund will be issued, in any case, for any service fees and/or presale fees, nor for any shipping costs incurred by the customer, in the event of renunciation by the latter.

    2. If I am unable to come to Rome, but have already purchased the Card online, can I give the purchased Card to another person?

      Yes. All you have to do is communicate the change by sending an e-mail to info@romapass.it, providing the new Card holder’s name, plus the withdrawal code. If necessary, you should also any change of date and/or Tourist Infopoint for the collection.

      If the person who picks up the Roma Pass 72 Hours (or the Roma Pass 48 Hours) is different from the one whose name has been registered at the moment of the purchase, it is necessary to submit a photocopy of the ID and an authorization letter signed by the person who was originally supposed to collect the card (see also FAQ 4.2 and 7.1).

    3. If I have an unused Roma Pass 72 Hours or Roma Pass 48 Hours, can I give it to another person?

      Yes, you can give the purchased and unused card to another person.

      In any case, the card has to be used within the date of a possible change in the selling price or in the services included on the card, or anyway within 6 months from the purchase date. In the case of online purchase, within 6 months from the withdrawal date selected.

    4. What should I do when my card is damaged, lost or stolen?

      Unfortunately, there is nothing to do. The system does not allow us to suspend or block the card, and for this reason we can’t offer any refunds, credits, or replacements.
