In practice, if they charged you the refundable prescription charge every time you couldn't produce the card, they'd loose a lot of customers. My pharmacy has set it up so the computer flags it up if they haven't seen your card for a while, and you are firmly advised to bring it in next time.Interestingly, they don't take note of the expiry date. Came in handy when I was accidentally sent a 10 year MATERNITY exemption card.</blockquote>
