It turned out that the'malignant refund amount' that was refunded after purchasing a KTX ticket to receive credit card benefits amounted to about 900 million won.
On the 12th, Rep. Kyo-heung Kim of the Democratic Party of the National Assembly's National Land, Infrastructure and Transport Committee released the state audit data received from the Korea Railroad (KORAIL) on the'Status of malicious members returned after bulk purchases of tickets for the past 4 years'.
According to the data, 42 members abused the return service, and they purchased 10,952 tickets and received a refund worth 871.02 million won.
Of these, it is known that one member purchased 11,132 tickets, worth over 120 million won, and canceled all of them.
There were also 30 malicious refunders who returned more than 10 million won after issuing a large number of tickets.
The reason malicious refunders do this was to receive a'card company affiliate discount' according to the payment amount.
I bought a large number of tickets with no cancellation fee and returned them the following month.
Rep. Kim Gyo-heung said, "While they had tickets that would not ride, good-intentioned passengers were inconvenient because they could not find a seat." "We have to set standards."
