jw1739 Posted October 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Wrt to the match against WU... I've received our two Digital Memberships but they're both on the same smartphone. I've emailed the club, but haven't heard back yet - what's the procedure at the turnstiles in this case? One of us goes through first and then passes the phone back to the other?

Same, but further down it asks for a code, which to me means will be the payment. Currently CBF contacting membership to clarify, but like everything else with memberzhips something simple turns into a complicated process. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bt50 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Are people sure it's 'free' or that being a member just gives you access to the $75 rate, rather than the normal $9 a month 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can recall, someone on here said Victory were offering it for free in their memberships, so to wait as they'll do the same for us. In response to that, I cancelled my membership and have been waiting for the freebie to come. However, I don't remember ever seeing anything official from the club they actually were going to give it to us for free. Might just be a wrong assumption on our part unfortunately, but happy to be proven wrong. I'll give it a day or so and if I dont hear anything else, will just take the $75 offer.

If you go to the Western Sydney Wanderers page it is made quite clear that the member offer is $75 per year. https://am.ticketmaster.com/wanderersfc/PPlus I don't know whether this is made clear on the City website or not. Incidentally the Wanderers web-site appears to be much more user friendly than the City one. Have a look. IMO City need to wake up in this respect. https://wswanderersfc.com.au/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not entirely Citys fault but surely their communication afterwards with that initial email should have been clearer considering what was suggested earlier. See response from my query this morning to membership(Ryan). Good morning Jovan, Thank you for your email - Paramount initially had told clubs this would be the case and then couldn’t work out how to make it work. They only let us know last week that the same deal would apply. It’s been unfortunately messy but we’re in control of the roll out at least so no delays on codes being sent out. Kind regards, Ryan So ultimately we need to pay again for imo the worst streaming service on the market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fensaddler Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 I feel less peeved than I might have done. I got charged $89.99 renewal in August, so the discount for members is pretty modest compared to that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really, City's communications are poor. If WSW can get it clear and explicit then so can we. Repeated exhortations to buy tickets is not communication, it's marketing, and we ought to do a lot better than we do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You compare it to Optus, Kayo or even Stan, it's actually embarrassing and to think these idiots now control the game in this country. Foxtels last few seasons were pretty ordinary but I'd take them back in heartbeat, Paramount is completely shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s not what the club is about but we need to bring more people in the gate. It's not what CFG seem to want to do with Melbourne City. But the situation with the club, the A-League and spectators has changed with the pandemic, and therefore IMO there should be room for CFG to change its stance for a season or two.

I'm curious Related question that came up at the Adelaide match. How does a member with, say, a nine-match membership know that he has used up his allotted number of attendances (apart from trying to remember how many he's been to that is)? Does the membership simply refuse to let him through the turnstile, or does he get a message as soon as his number is up, or what? (It's not me btw.)

As opposed to $9 per month ($108 per year). But this was at the start of the season and as things are just going up who the fuck knows, and will probably be more by the time i hit submit.
