If I remember rightly, the same rules applied last season for the season ticket offer.
I'd guess that as the Ticket Office is being by-passed, it might be saving the club some money. Secondly, I don't think the Ticket Office take cards on Match Days either.
I do find it rather bemusing that the Ticket Office make a charge for paying by debit cards. Could you imagine the uproar at Asda if they said, "That'll be £102 please, plus 50p extra if you pay by card."
The admin time taken up by having to count cash, the security risk, and banking it must cost more than the electronic payment costs.
It would be intersting to know why the stadium policy is
I seem to remember paying at the ticket office last year, so you are not right.
I paid by credit card and paid the 50p
The good thing about credit cards is... that supporters who might be a bit boracic can buy a season ticket.
People who are a bit boracic ,come tomorrow, will not be able to buy a season ticket simply because they haven't got the cash ...a cheque is just cash delayed by 4 working days ... ie you need funds in the bank.
The net result will be that less people will buy season tickets tomorrow than would have done.
And the ticket office is easier to find.
Trust me.
On the plus side, people who want season tickets at a later date will pay more = more money for the club.
Anyway, I will be getting mine tomorrow.
What is the concession price ... anyone know?

| The Ticket Office must have been open last year if you paid there S/O.
I seemed to recall paying Jackie Green in one of the upstairs rooms, but the old memory isn't what it used to be!
I understand your concerns that fewer people may be able to afford a ticket without the availability of the credit card facility, and the other added benefits paying by card brings.
Only the club can shed some light on this one for us. Same applies with the no concessions policy.
The price of £80 is great value and I hope the majority can afford to get signed up tomorrow.

I can only think that we are considered an aging support base and to give a concession is a concession too far.
I've never known a situation where there is not a concession on season tickets.
£80 is fine by me, since I considered £50 last year to be a give-away.
However that means that the normal adult price is too cheap and the old farts like me are subsidising younger fans, and that goes against the whole idea of concessions.
I think wahs must be incandescent.

| Being devils advocate , oldies like me(60) do get a concession cos the price could be £90 or £ 100. The concession is not as much as adult prices though !
I will be buying one also as will Janet.

The very reason for a concession is to give a discount on the full price to a group of people who IN THEORY don't have as much income as workers.
So WHATEVER the adult price, be it high, low or whatever ... the concession price is traditionally about 2/3rds of that.
Now I don't know of many clubs who don't adhere to that.
And to deviate from that loses customers ... ask wahs for a start, we lost him.
Now I can understand on a one-off bargain offer like tomorrow it is easier to just have one price. But it's still not equitable.

| I think the cost for a new season ticket is a great price for everyone.

| First i've heard of the offer...too late....2 years in a row that has happened...There are good reasons to begrudge this offer if like me you had not heard of it...or could not afford it on the day...then going to games next year paying full price knowing others have paid the special offer price...these offers should last a whole calendar month, and as well as that moral issue I don't see the buisness sense in it either.

Don't worry Richard ... you can have mine as a Christmas present.
I can't imagine the concession price season ticket being a lot more expensive if I wanted to buy another.
