No barcodes from now on according to the club. A bit gutting as I find it much quicker and less of a faff than NFC.My email has arrived. I downloaded the ticket but I also found no security code. I am concerned about that as the NFC tech does not work on my phone at the turnstile even though NFC is enabled on my phone.
I have emailed City to see what they suggest. I think there are quite a fee people who use the barcode scanner to open the turnstile. If I get a reply, I'll update the topic.
Also not ideal for some fans using phones without that capability. A small number maybe, but still going to make some jump through hoops for something that simply wasn't an issue before.
