My fb feed is unsurprisingly full of people complaining about how they haven't gotten their ventra cards, can't activate their cards, can't put money on their cards, how it appears that the ventra rfid chip is somehow interacting with the chip in other cards with rfid and making them not work unless you take the correct individual card out of your wallet.
I only skimmed the article, but I think it said that in response to the backlash against getting the ventra cards operational that they're extending the usage period for the chicago cards until 12/15 which means at least I can use mine on my (hopefully last for the foreseeable future) trip there the week after next.
