Pickle Rick Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Hi all. Just wandering if there was ever any confirmation on a loyalty scheme of some sort? The main things I’d be interested in are shop and concourse discounts and any voucher or bonus applied on club merchandise purchases. There was previously a £10 voucher which I cannot see on my store account Plus I cannot find a link on the official website!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concourse discount is separate from any "Loyalty Scheme" and remains at 10% for season ticket holders. Details on the "Loyalty Scheme" and any associated shop discount or credit seems to remain unannounced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite embarrassing for whoever is supposed to be responsible. I’m not bothering to buy anything from the club shop until I know what scheme is in place.

Pearcy Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I was thinking exactly the same. I was intending on buying a shirt today and was hoping to use my £10 credit which we'd usually get. I won't be bothering now. Really poor from the club to have not made an announcement yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wont buy it just because of just £10?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 1 hour ago, Pearcy said: No, I won't buy it today on principle. What principle..? You weren't promised it. Its an additional extra that's been offered before, but is entirely discretionary, as what you've paid for is for entry to out 23 home league games & priority period for away tickets. Throwing your toys out the pram because the club, who are in huge yearly losses, aren't giving you an extra tenner off your shirt - that's not principle. That's just petty, entitled, childish nonsense. IMHO. 5 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club dont have to offer any discounts. If you really wanted a shirt surely principal or a tenner is meaningless. ah well, all our own choice i guess!

RedM Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I can see both sides of this. We did get a fancy box and a keyring this season as our gift! But also a £10 on our ST cards would probably have meant the price going up even more to cover that. But for those saying it's 'only' a tenner it works out about 18% on an adult shirt, so not bad. In some peoples cases it might mean the difference of getting a shirt or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 By all accounts the loyalty scheme is points on card when making a purchase in store. They asked for my card today. What the points equate to is anyones guess as the cashier didn't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy it or don't buy it - the £10 previous discount is not a given that we are entitled too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a perk of some sort (which seems unconfirmed as of yet), then for some they’d rather wait before paying. Like John Lewis, the club shop is a retail outlet And the point (also valid with John Lewis) is why buy something and then lose out on a discount? It’s more or less the same as shopping just before a sale begins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyderInACan Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Is it not beyond the wit of Bristol Sport to have already announced this seeing as City are already 6 games into the season? Maybe Jon needs to sharpen his crayons and crack on ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezo Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Maybe they aren't doing anything, no point in announcing that there won't be something that was already just an additional bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 In the shop on Sunday they scanned my card and when I asked for what benefit they said we’ll find out in October. On a side note, as I’ve criticised the shop on many occasions over the last few years, I think this season’s offerings are an improvement on previous years. Let’s hope this improvement continues.

Who doesn’t like a good old surprise! Season starts in August, City release benefit information in October. Will probably be 50% off in the shop during September!

Parkwaymom Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 If no loyalty scheme had been offered I’d probably already have a new shirt. As they have offered one with no details, I’m waiting for the details. If by the time they decide to share the details, they’ve soldering out of my size, I’ll have saved myself £50.

Steve Watts Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 I may well have missed this, but have they been announced as yet? Usually it includes cashback on purchasers by way of points to spend in the store etc, but I've not seen anything yet. The shop were saying at the start of the season that money will go on if that's what's announced, and will backdate.... Am I just being blind or is this yet to be announced still?

Meh Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 At this rate it will start for 24/25 season. Very amateur - how complex can this scheme be to take months to finalise !? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
