2022 Western Bulldogs Membership Thread

[Danny the snakeman]

The whole digital entry thing I don't get. I show a barcode on my phone they scan it with a barcode reader or I scan it on the turnstyle. What is the difference when I do the same thing with a card. It's rules for the sake of making rules.

You will have a new barcode every game , you can't do that with a card.

Did the turnstiles every register QR codes? If not, the cost of updating them with new hardware and software may have been prohibitive.

My a league club digital membership card is a QR code.

It works fine at the AAMI turnstiles. Only issue I've found is positioning your phone under the stationary reader so it hits the right part of your phone and ensuring your brightness is up.

I was with my elderly mum and her sister yesterday who are 50 plus year members and both were really put off when I told them the situation.
Almost like well that's it for us they keep making it harder and harder for us to go. (they're in 80s).

So we don't have the same seats anymore? I went through the app and it's putting my 8yr old son 2 sections over in different seats. I hope I'm doing this wrong because if this is what we have to put up with I'm cancelling now.

I wouldn't mind seating my kids 2 sections over at times.

Not really a laughing matter mate. I'm absolutely devastated.

I've had my young kids seated by themselves on flights, I laugh and the airline fixes it.

Surely it's something that can be sorted out, there's bound to be some teething problems with the new system.

Perhaps give the club a chance to fix it before you microwave your membership.

I'm going back through old emails and it says you need to fill out some form to renew your seat. I can't even remember if I did? I've been so busy I've possibly overlooked, I do remember speaking to someone at some stage and they did say that it was all the same. It's just another obstacle on top of another day in day out. I'm fed up with it all.

My recollection is there was a date by which you had to contact the club to get your exact old seats. I only know this because I look after my mum's affairs.
I wouldn't panic though, I'm sure they'll be able to sort you out with seats close to where you previously were.
Contact the club first thing Monday.

To be fair it was pretty funny.

I would be surprised if you can't get your seats back or close too. Despite all the who haa about our membership numbers when you remove the aflw numbers we are pretty much same as last year. There has certainly not been any big rush of new members to sign up even after playing off in GF.
