Season Tickets - 2024/25

Citizen of Legoland said:
I’m not sure that will be the reason. Using NFC for entry to the ground and then NFC for buying food and drink probably shouldn’t allow them to link the two things under data protection rules. That said, I am sure I read somewhere that this season they were going to ask for NFC checks of supporters’ season cards for the 10% discount (rather than just the server looking at the phone screen), so that may allow them to do so. Not sure it gives them much other than who is using their discount and who isn’t.

You need to scan your phone in SS3 to get the catering discount already. Was in place for all last season (or at least every time I went to the bar).

Thanks for the info, why can’t they just issue PAH tickets? Or is that too easy…

I've printed at home last 3 seasons including all Wembley games.
The access team were very helpful getting me a PAH ticket for charity shield saying it was the FA being arsey.
Today the access team informed me Etihad stadium no PAH Tickets anymore.
Can collect on match day from City ticket office. Everyone involved with City tickets are full of shit. Tell you anything to get off the phone. CTID

No PAH tickets from now on was reported by another poster a couple of weeks ago who also was struggling to get hers and hers son's tickets for Wembley. I wonder if it's something the new Ticketing Compliance Whatever person has initiated as you'd assume they are the easiest to sell on?

Since part of last season I've had mails before games saying I have to have have photographic ID to show I'm over 65 when using my SC (no problem as I never pass it on to anyone). This new person will have to show a return on his or her salary by getting more seats for the club to sell at whatever prices they choose.

I was in contact with the poster you referred too. And gave him the information who to contact regarding his PAH Tickets for Wembley.What frustrating his the Mancity access team telling me it was Wembley being Arsey knowing two weeks later I will not be able to PAH my season ticket.
Love City Hate the ticket office

It's poor but I expect the ticket office were under instructions not to say PAH would be no longer available. The club should put out this information to all those who have had PAH previously but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Discretionary PAH tickets or an actual Seasoncard for those who’ve got genuine problems getting in otherwise should be an option.

Plenty of people still have physical cards.

No idea what sort of criteria you need to meet though.

I suspect if you’ve used a digital ticket previously, it’s a bit trickier to convince them you no longer can. Compared to those who’ve no digital usage history.

I gave mine up years back (2018 or so) and I was genuinely unaware.

Whilst I always opt for e-tickets myself, it’s personal choice.

I know an old timer who’s never been on any computer in his life. Not even a cash point or a shop self service.

He goes down to the ticket office every year and pays for his ST in cash and they reactivate his card.

Just thought, I suppose even scanning a card is ‘going on a computer’ but you get the drift.
 
From Feb 2024:
"Mobile phone user statistics show that, as of 2023, 98% of all adults aged 16-24 in the UK have a smartphone. Among the older age groups, 86% of those aged 55-64 owned a smartphone device compared to 80% aged 65 and above."

Venues of all sizes, and for almost all types of events, are pushing punters towards e-tickets. The main difference seems to be that other types of venue are willing to offer PAH or physical tickets without the customer jumping through hoops to get one.
 
Just been on to print my ticket. Have done so for years. Option not there. Hence me coming on here.
What the he'll is going on.
Doesn't give me the option to add to mobile either.

Edit, sorted now. Ordered season ticket book

I just thought I'd quote your post and the one by @Franny 1234 in case he hasn't been offered this option

I've done a more recent post saying the Etihad no longer issue PAH Tickets.
The access team obviously knew this but bullshit there way around my question a few weeks ago

I saw that but the other poster has been able to go back in time and get a season card book for this season!

I've just contacted the club again asked them to cancel both season tickets that won't download and resell and resend them to me on a new link so I can download them to current Google wallet.
They have agreed to try this and think it may work .
The first lad I spoke to refused to do anything and just kept repeating himself again & again.
I'll let you know if it's successful
