| This mistake pops up on EF every few months. ANYONE can buy the half-price card, including tourists who are here for just a brief period (although if it is for less than a month, they should get the one month version for 99 CHF). | |

Definitely true. In 2008 I spent six weeks in Switzerland, so did not buy the one month card. My passport plus pictures were all that was required. Since I did not have an address I picked my card up (processing takes some time) at the Sion station (I bought it at Geneva airport). I was given a temporary card until the real one was processed.
Disagreeing with ChrisW on CFF/SBB matters is not a good idea, he seems to know more about the system than those who work there
