FreesiaE Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Hi, Someone broke into my car last night and stole my KI gold passes. I have called KI to let them know to please deactivate them, confiscate them, etc. However, I was also told that it would be $15 a piece to replace them. I have filed a police report. Do you think if I bring said report that I can get free replacements? Or, am I better off just buying my 2016 passes and getting new passes made? Will they even make them this early? Thanks!

The Interpreter Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 A 2016 new pass would only get you in one time in 2015. A renewal of the 2015 passes would get you in the rest of this season, too. Sorry to hear about the break-in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreesiaE Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 If I renew can I get a free gold pass, or would I still be on the hook for the $15 each pass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I don't think you'd have to have the passes. The park can look them up for you. A new card when renewing is typically gratis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrick Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 My wife lost hers 4 or 5 years ago. When we called the park, they told us it would be $15 to replace, unless we had a police report in which case it would be free. But again, that was 4-5 years ago. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 My understanding was always that your first replacement was free, with each subsequent reprint subject to the $15 fee? Has that changed, or did I misunderstand? Either way, with a police report I expect it would be free anyway. Call the park to ask about that!

malem Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 You may be thinking about the "forgot pass" admission, which Kings Island offers complimentary to passholders once per season. (A second time would require paying the replacement pass fee.) It's worth noting that the replacement pass (for a fee) is also offered only once per season. A second time would involve buying admission ticket(s) or a new pass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 And the original poster was told about the replacement fee (even with a police report) by a park person on the phone....I'd go to the park and deal with admissions in person. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Then why was the original poster told otherwise on the phone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanna Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 My replacement was free, but I didn't need a police report. The policeman was standing right there next to me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
