“A empresa que administra o trem Bernina no trecho de Tirano a St Moritz e a volta de St Moritz a Tirano , não aceitou o bilhete que vcs me enviaram , foi muito constrangedor e humilhante , e na volta ainda tive comprar o bilhete de volta de St Moritz a Tirano pois não me deixaram embarcar na última hora com meus filhos . Gastei 66 ,00 CHF francos suissos em três bilhetes , além de passar por toda essa situação vexatória. Quero Receber no mínimo meu dinheiro de volta que gastei a mais mais impostos , porque paguei no cartão de crédito. Att . Vito Lerario”
