MBTA riders purchased roughly 170,000 monthly passes for February service, a spokesperson tells BostInno.

A single monthly pass costs $75 and grants riders unlimited subway and bus trips. Unfortunately for riders hoping to receive some form of compensation for the T’s dreadful February performance, that doesn’t appear to be in the cards.

“The MBTA does not have a refund program,” spokesperson Joe Pesaturo told BostInno in an email.

The month of February was one to forget for the MBTA. Historic snowfall consistently hampered all subway, trolley, bus and commuter lines to such an extent that the T’s outgoing general manager, Beverly Scott, apologetically told riders that refunds would be considered.

According to the Boston Globe, the board overseeing the T is wary of granting refunds or discounts for the repeated snow-related delays. The reason: a double-than-what-was-expected $6.7 billion to repair and upgrade the system.

Refund proposals or fare discounts presented at a Tuesday meeting, the Globe reports, would cost between $3.6 million and $10.5 million.

The T sold $12,750,000 million worth of monthly passes for February service. If the T were to pay customers back a varying portion of that, “then we don’t have that money to invest in the system,” state Transportation Department secretary Stephanie Pollack told MassDOT board members, referring specifically to refund or discount proposals presented at the Tuesday finance committee meeting.

No official decision was made on Tuesday on whether to grant riders refunds or discounts for poor service. But a vote on the matter could come by March 11.
