No chance the club would use recorded delivery,
They prefer to leave things late, leave a number of fans in the lurch and do things right in the middle of the summer holidays.
It’s an absolute sh-it show of a club when it comes to things like this - embarrassing how amateurish they are
Actually why reissuing them every 2 years is a bonkers decision. Maybe one for the Clarets Trust to raise

I don’t agree with how late they’ve left it to post the tickets out, but how would recorded delivery have helped?
Special Delivery is guaranteed (and registered) next day delivery, Recorded isn't worth much more than the paper it's printed on.

At least with recorded you know where it is. If it’s lost, a new 1 can be reissued in time, instead of having to constantly chase them. It’s an amateur way of delivery. Even a basic Amazon delivery has tracking.

I wear glasses and mine haven't arrived. Though I have my contact lenses in today so maybe that's why
I’ve just had to start wearing glasses but mine arrived the day before I got the specs

Mine has still not come, my Dad's did last week.

Getting a bit worried because I won't be here to claim it Thursday or Friday and was going to the game straight from work Friday too. If it doesn't come tomorrow or Wednesday I will be a bit stuck...

It really needs bringing up as to how these are delivered.

And just like that, the postman came again today (bit weird) - and it has arrived.

Phew.

It's the package where you give the post office a batch of post to be delivered within a certain timeframe. As long as they are delivered by a certain date it's up to the post office when they deliver them...lots of companies use the service

There’s not really anything to worry about is there because the worst case scenario involve you having to pop into the ticket office before the game for a replacement match day ticket.

I hope not. Mine still hasn’t arrived and I can only get to the ground around 20 mins before kick off if I’m lucky on Friday. I’ll likely be queueing into kick off judging by what it’s usually like.

Perhaps if you call the ticket office explaining the situation (if it doesn’t arrive beforehand) they will send you a digital ticket by email.

Well I’m only just getting my head around what to do now the ticket doesn’t seem like it will arrive on time. Ridiculous of me to assume it would be sorted before the first game, I know…

I can confirm that if you ring the ticket office and explain as I did that my grandson's season ticket hasn't arrived they will send a ticket for the City match via e-mail. Got through to them quickly too.

You'd have thought it wouldn't have been too difficult to post all the cards a week or so earlier.

Just took the old sturdy claret and blue card out of the wallet and replaced it with the new flimsy City colours card. Guess the cards are thinner to save plastic but would have saved more by not replacing for a couple more years. Looked like loads of mileage still left on old one and it’s been used for virtually every home game since it was issued.

I feel exactly the same. There’s no need for them to be replaced

It’s not as though they are being constantly being inserted into machines to be scanned so that the card is being worn out.

Are you using the app or the website? The app doesn’t work for me but the website does
