Residents of new York can get a letter of apology from the management of the metro (MTA), if because of delays in the subway they were late for work, school or appointment.
It will also serve as written confirmation of the reasons for the delay if it is necessary to explain to the employer or anyone else — say in MTA.
In order to obtain a letter, you need to fill in the online form at the link where to enter your name, date, and time delay, and line and metro station.
Generally this service MTA launched a few years ago, but in recent years due to frequent delays, the demand for such letters has increased. According to recent reports, over the past five years, the time delays in the subway in new York has doubled, writes the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
However, one of the residents who filled in the form, was dissatisfied when I got the notification that the letter will arrive within 10 days.
«Ten days! Yes, at that time I was already fired,» said the girl.
However, representatives of the MTA claim that the majority of requests made online are processed within two days. Much longer time is if you make a request by mail or phone — in that case really have to wait up to 10 days.
