Yup! Get a new Key. Log in to the Septa Key website and register both cards. Then, under Card Options, claim the old one as lost/stolen/damaged. Once it's registered and hotlisted, you can transfer the funds to the new card.

This "hotlist" is the quickest way I've found to transfer funds.

The article states

"Court records show the landlord alleged more than $8,000 in unpaid rent, but ultimately reached an agreement with the tenants last May that no money was owed, the tenants would move out by January, and the landlord would make necessary repairs."

So I'm assuming the tenant didn't have an attorney and agreed to the deal in mediation which means the judge never even heard the case. The landlord's attorney likely knew they didn't have a case if what you said is true, and thus was willing to waive so much back rent on the condition that the tenant just surrenders the premises.
