[Albion] Alternatives to NFC Tickets

[seagullrich]

Has anyone had much luck navigating alternatives to NFC season tickets this season.

I know the club is doing everything it can to push up the sale of iPhones further but for those of us who still want a printed ticket it's getting more and more difficult. I keep getting a not possible option when trying to renew my season ticket but it's still referenced on the club website.

Anyone with experience of getting print at home (or none NFC tickets)?

Thanks

I got a photo card season ticket for Junior Orange, and as my phone doesn't have NFC I just use the QR code on the pass in Google Pay for entry on mine.

nfc doesnt seem to work anyway, while the QR code does. so there's no reason for club to push away from printed QR codes, for those with printer. its rather exclusionary but thats the modern world, tech first access second.

nfc doesnt seem to work anywa.

It's worked flawlessly for me every game this season. Maybe I'm atypical.

NFC wouldn't work on my Pixel 4 but when I switched to a different Android phone it has worked every time for me.

As others have said, QR codes on the phone work really well in many ways

Where's the evidence that NFC doesn't work? It's worked every match for me and for most of those I see going into the WSU every game. The QR code works for my wife who doesn't have NFC on her phone.

Not saying there shouldn't be an alternative but arguments need to be based on facts not assertions with no evidence.

should have put "reliably". either because not turned on, ticket not "active" on phone, not clear where to place, or machine not accepting who knows. where as QR is reliable, you can see its there.

Works on my watch. It's marvellous.

Haven't seen a paper gig ticket in the best part of a decade. Why should football be any different?

Even with a nice new Samsung using NFC has been distinctly hit and miss. Accordingly, rather than hold the queue up faffing I simply swipe under with the QR and works every time
