Quick ticketing question

Post by Ightenclaret » Sat Oct 23, 2021 9:50 am

Does the club now send out e-tickets / email ticket proof as I have someone who wont be at home to pick up their tickets for the Spurs game ?
Thanks

I got E tickets mate. Not to hijack your OP I also have a question on the tickets. I ordered and received the 3 tickets as QR codes, will the turnstile bloke allow me to scan 3 and let 3 in ? as my Grandson is coming on his first match and he wouldn't be able scan himself in.

Aye you’re right - he’s been sent out QR codes. Once person should be able to scan all in

I think it's OK for all of the QR codes to be on the one phone but it is obviously easier if you can share the email as we did for the Cadiz friendly.

Anyone know how long an e mail from the club with the ticket QR code normally takes?.. Paid a couple of hours ago and not received anything

Cheers

Not usually that long - I'd check with them tomorrow if you haven't received it

What's the reason for not sending out paper tickets any more?

Quicker, easier, cheaper.....however, if you don't have a smartphone then at least you can print them off or get someone to do it for you??

QR codes , don't get me going as going to an international here in Ireland you have to print them off as you have to pass them in the tiny slot for the gate to open , hey i am a grand master of Origami these days ...........

We don’t have anything quite so modern as automatic opening. It still requires a turnstile operator to release it.

Ahhh but at club level on Friday night , well the story goes as follows .

Now i buy my tickets on line print them at home with a bar code , take it to the game scan and away you go . Now decided to buy at the ground on Friday night and was given a QR code on a ticket . So bought the ticket yer woman had her scanner and tried to scan it and no luck , she said where did you get this from i just pointed about two yards from her and said there you saw me buy it , she just shugged her shoulders and said go on go in .

Hi Tec Galway United hummmmmm .

Hi CT, Just one to possibly bring up if you are ever in a supporters club meeting with the club. As above I attended with all 3 E tickets on my phone, I did send 1 to my son who is 22 as you know and no problem, but my grandson is 6 and obviously doesn't have a phone, so I explained to the bloke on the turnstile that could I possibly scan 2 tickets and go through with him, to which I got No! so I said well its a bit much asking a 6 year old to push that big iron thing, so my son went first, I then scanned my grandson in, and tried to explain to him he needed to stand in the big iron cage and push his way through wile my son and I helped the iron cage move, and low and behold it jammed, so I now have a petrified 6 year old stuck in the turnstile while the attendant frantically pressing the pedal to allow the turnstile to move to get him out the other side. I said to him why couldn't you do that in the first place you just pressed that pedal around a dozen times to get him through there I could have gone through with him if you let me scan more than 1 at once, to which I was told we are not allowed!!1 Unbelievable and not the best first match experience.
