Seasoncard Amnesty

[Eccles Blue]

i have managed to log in but where is the "review your data" section on the ticketing website?

Maybe you have to wait for the email from the club? It seemed to be in a different section of the site. I had to click on a link in the email and it took me straight to my details with a few questions to answer. Hope this helps.

I’ve just received the email.

Twice.

In half an hour.

Correct. Ticket sharing is now obsolete, using track and trace as the cover story because photo ID is now mandatory.

We'll see how it is implemented. Euro 96 was when ID was supposed to introduced to stop touting and first and nothing happened.

Handing over ID and SCs to be checked increases the risk of spread, it needs to be contactless entry which is possible with a few changes.

There's a link in the email and on the website item, in the penultimate paragraph headed 'Review Your Data'.

Is that right? You transfer a card to a different person, and they get another 1,000 points to add to the points the original cardholder built up (including the points they got when they first bought a seasoncard)?

Hasn't it already been said that this is a temporary measure just whilst T&T is needed?

so the top and bottom of it is if im working i cant give my mate my ticket.

I've had this season ticket for nearly 15 years and it's not in my name I've built up 26k points on it.

I just want to change the name on it to mine, I can't workout if this is what they are calling a 'transfer' and I'll end up with a new card with 1000 points on it and I'll still have the card that's not in my name.

If so, then I might as well get some dodgy I.D to match my season ticket.

No it hasn't. Make no mistake this has been planned for a while and is here to stay.

Put yourself in City's position. An amnesty and ID suits the club to maximise sales (by ensuring only those with named tickets go to the game, not letting your mate have it, maximising the Exchange and match day ticket prices). Track and trace has facilitated this yet there are 101 ways of doing that but they've not been implemented, this has. Photo ID has only ever been used to combat trouble and stop touting. This does neither.

As already mentioned, if lots of points are involved it'll mean dodgy IDs to match the ticket rather than an amnesty as intended.

Typical City.

Honest question but why have you had a season card in another name for so long? I assume you don't have another in your name.
