Silvio Dante Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 A small moan. The new third kit I think is great, and both my kids have asked for it. With personalisation, it’s the best part of £120 for shirts. That’s a lot of cash, but in prior seasons the blow is softened a bit by the club in effect offering cash back of 10% to STHs to use as a discount against future purchases. The club know who the STH are from their databases, they don’t need to wait for the physical cards to be sent. However, we’re launching the kits, and in the immediate sales period we have no “loyalty scheme” (which I assume will work the same way as prior years) - which means that people who do buy the kit now effectively lose out. Its not a huge thing but it’s a small example of something we could do better. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olé Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 And made all the more ridiculous by the fact that we tend to sell out of gear quickly in popular sizes so you have the farce of a loyalty scheme that'll only really reward people only for buying leftovers with credit to buy even more leftovers. Part of me thinks this is by design - not to sound too business like but from a yield perspective you're guaranteed sales at launch, you only need to reward when sales dip, and ideally you only reward with access to products that don't sell. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Rascal Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Do you have any credit left on your season card from last season? My daughter went down there last Saturday to get me the black on black t-shirt for Father’s Day. She took her season card and asked about the usual discount, but nothing was available at the moment. He did put her supporter number in and found she had a couple of quid on there from purchases, so took that off the price. Not quite 10%, but something.

As for the £10 rewards start up I was rather looking forward to adding to my end of season mug collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it had finished, but they put in her supporter number and deducted £2 (I think) from the price of the t-shirt. If not from the rewards balance, maybe there is a discretionary discount until the new scheme is out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezo Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 I went to the club shop a couple weekends ago and gave them my season ticket - they said I couldn't use last year's balance (which I hadn't touched) but if they put it in it would be on record and then any benefit could be claimed post the announcement of the new loyalty scheme.

Street red Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) Not just this but does anybody know if the City membership is continuing this season the alternative to a season ticket? Edited June 25, 2022 by Street red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider11 Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 I was in the shop on Thursday morning and the lad serving me asked if had a season ticket when I bought something. As a non season ticket holder can’t confirm what I’d have received if said yes to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
