Student ID card doesn’t work

What exactly doesn’t work?

  • Only making payments with the card doesn’t work. The gate at the student parking lot opens or the date imprint on the back of the card worked.
    • It is probably just the electronic payment system that isn’t working. The Student Union can most likely repair it. Please go to Room F 101.
    • If the Student Union is unable to repair your card, you must apply for a new card.
    • Please consult a member of staff in the B Building.
  • The card is not recognised by any device (cafeteria, gate at the parking lots, validation terminal).
    • Please apply for a new card.
  • Follow Me Printer doesn’t work.
    • You changed your programme of study: Please use the login name and the student ID from your new programme.

 

I would like to transfer credit or exchange my credit for cash

  • Please consult the Student Union (room F 101) or the copy shop. The university has no access to the electronic accounts of external providers.

If you need any help please contact campuscard-support@th-deg.de.
