Anyone else get an email about this?!
Not sure it is really a good idea to be honest.
You get it automatically if you are a season ticket holder, but if you aren't a season ticket holder it will cost a tenner. Now one benefit is that it will put you in 2nd place in priority for away tickets and cup matches.
BUT it is a let down in the merchandise section as it is replacing the current discount according to the email. Which if I recall is 10% off in the club shop. Now you will get 5 points for every £1 spent. And 500 points is worth a fiver.
So under the old discount scheme you as a season ticket holder could get a home shirt for £36 (£40 minus 10%). But now it will cost you £40 and you will get 200 points, which is only 5%.
I suppose a bonus is that it operates like the nectar scheme as you can collect points based on you online shopping. And then spend these points in the club shop. But there are just too many of these scheme around these days. I seem to have Nectar, Tescos, Waterstones, Boots, WH Smiths in my wallet and regularly use quidco online!!
So is it worth it?! Can you see yourselves using it?!
