Foid/CCL delaminated and split in two.

[Capt_Destro]

Pulled it out of my wallet today, and found that the plastic delaminated. There are currently 2 cards now, one being a front and a back...

 

Some shops say it isnt valid if taped/glued/laminated which is freaking stupid. Yet using my "E-Card" is fine 

 

This was not put through the washer or abused in any way. It shared the same wallet pocket as my Illinois Driver's License which is in very good shape and does not exhibit any similar issues.

 

I have been unable to get through the phone switchboard.

 

If I email I get sent a FAQ, no reply from an actual person for over a week.

 

Do they seriously expect me to pay $75 because ISP went with the lowest bidder on card stock!?

 

Kinda annoyed with how bad this program is run despite the ridiculous application fees we pay.

 

Shot in the dark here.

Anyone have a connection or contact with an actual ISP employee who could assist?

You might want to try to get in contact with your Sate Senator or Representative. I had an issue, and my State Rep. was able to connect me with someone in the ISP.

A defect in materials or workmanship sounds like an implied warranty claim.

It's not like it was lost or stolen.

I was sent a bad card. I could not get anyone from the isp to even talk to me about it.  Now it's just a joke at any store or range I go to.  Laughing at Illinois, not with illinois.

Still no luck. This state is a f-ing joke honestly. Emails aren't replied to after several weeks/follow ups.

 

My State Rep is Anti-2A. So I doubt they would urinate on me if I were on fire. 😅

Honestly I just repaired the damn thing myself, and you can't even tell it happened. I doubt anyone is even going to notice.

super glue and a heavy book over night.

My wifes card is doing this as are several of our students. Yes, it can be easily fixed but it shouldn't have to be.
