Disabled season ticket prices (1 Viewer)

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

I'm hoping somebody here can help , because I can't get through to the ticket office and I can't phone ticket master on my phone .

Has anybody here renewed their season ticket with a disability and could you tell me how much they cost as I cannot see the price anywhere
.
I'm trying to find out how much a disabled season ticket is in standard zone for my dad , many thanks

I was advised earlier that concessions only apply for under 21s and over 60s, but as I didn't ask about disabled fans it's hopefully not the case.

I'd send an email to TicketOffice@ccfc.co.uk (for some reason this differs slightly from the email address on the site, but they seem to be quicker to reply with this one. I got a reply within a few hours)

It's ok , club just told me on Twitter that my dad is 58 with a disability , he now has to pay full adult price because he doesn't have a wheelchair (has a stick ) which wasn't the case last season or the seasons before that , it's a new thing , so his ticket is going up over 110 pound this year , great news

Mum renewed earlier at £345 in block 20 hers has gone up £153 seems harsh to suddenly change the structure it's been the same for the past 10 years

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

Well I'm not sure we will get one now , he might opt with a pay monthly but I doubt it , absolute shambles

Surely if registered disabled that's enough?

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

Club stated if no wheelchair you pay full price for age band , I'm baffled and a bit pissed off tbh

Silence_Is_The_Enemy · May 6, 2016

Could well be the case that the club are in breach of disability discrimination law

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

They say you get a carer free but what if you don't have a carer ? Not everybody with a disability has a carer

It doesn't look great does it?! Why change it?

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

I have messaged Chris Anderson on Twitter , won't do much but I just needed to tell him this is baffling

SkyBlue_Bear83 · May 6, 2016

Sounds a bit of a pisstake tbh

I'm going to get BringBackWaggot trending on twitter

That's got to be wrong, registered disabled should be enough.

That's not on.

Chapter 5 makes for interesting reading, think the club did this before in 2007 and had to back down once the fans kicked off and proved they were breaking the law.

Sounds like somebody has got wires crossed within club and shop. I'm sure this will be found to be incorrect info and the club will have to fall into line with the disabled rules and regs.

Would like to think it's a mistake, that's awful.

I'm sure the % of registered disabled fans in wheelchairs is smaller than not.

[MENTION=7192]Evans1883[/MENTION] Hi Craig. Wheelchair disabled is concession rate, ambulant disabled is charged at relevant age band #pusb

Ambulant means anything other than wheelchair basically

Shocking. hope it's the person wrong.

Could try kieren? If he hasn't gone yet.

Surely somebody else on here will have tried for a disabled person?

I'm sure I saw something the other day about having to go in with paper work?

Can anybody in the scg get in touch with them to confirm or see what's going on?

What happens if somebody is severely mentally disabled but not in a wheel chair?

trondegilsoltvedt97 · May 6, 2016

From a quick google, the club appears to be coming in line with elsewhere

For example, it is the same at Derby http://www.dcfc.co.uk/tickets/disabled_supporters_tickets/

yeah you have to take all your current paperwork to prove your on disability benefit

Evo1883 · May 6, 2016

Ah well , just have to either pay it or not then I suppose

Can you not just have the free one as his carer?

if thats been derby's policy all along its fair enough but the fact city are trying to change theirs to now say ambulant are not as disabled as wheel chaired having said for the past 8 seasons sisu have been here they are turns it into discrimination against ambulant disabled their logic might be sound but the law is the law

trondegilsoltvedt97 · May 6, 2016

Burton charge full price, you just get a carer http://www.burtonalbionfc.co.uk/fans/disabled-supporters/

To me it's not discrimination. Discrimination would be if you were charging them more than everyone else.

Do they have to be a registered carer? Or for example a son to help them up the stairs?

Will probably end up doing that

Even cheaper then....

its just how its wrote you cant suddenly have a change of heart if you charge both the same price you cant suddenly charge 1 more then the other

Yep, looks like they have that option if needed.

Is ok if you go with somebody else, harsh if they go alone

When people hold up Bradford City as saints... http://www.bradfordcityfc.co.uk/fans/disabled-supporters/

"BCFC does not offer concessions to spectators in wheelchairs; all tickets are charged at the price appropriate to the stand in which spectators in wheelchairs are accommodated including, where appropriate, concessions for children and/or senior citizens."

chiefdave · May 6, 2016

Being registered disabled doesn't necessarily mean you aren't working does it? They don't give concessions for the unemployed either so maybe they're trying to get everything consistent. Be interesting to see what they say.

tbf though their full price adult season ticket is probably cheaper than most concessions season tickets of other other clubs.
