How to get the #deutschlandTicket #49EuroTicket as a *chipcard* in #leipzig as fast as possible

You will need:
- your ausweis/passport
- your IBAN
- 49 euros per month on that account

Go to LVB service center Zentrum, Markgrafenstr. 2. (DB reisezentrum @ hbf are out of chipcards.) I had to queue for ~30 minutes.
The chipcard I got. It's yellow and has "lass dich nicht aufhalten" written on it.
but you can still get it by just buying a paper ticket in the machine?
nup.

Paper version only in certain places, and then only til december
"nup."

Seriously?!?!?

They managed to take something that was so simple > Go to a Machine > Put cash in the machine > get a ticket.
No recurring fee's, No need for ID, or personal data.

And add complexity to it.
yep. Digitalisation is Good, didn't you hear?

States don't really seem to care about privacy. Mostly the opposite.
"Digitalisation is Good, didn't you hear?"

"They" keep saying that. But I still need to be convinced :p

"States don't really seem to care about privacy. Mostly the opposite."

Yeah that is true.
