Price Freeze ?

My Ponty end renewal says 315, yet I paid 305 according to my account history last year, and that included a shirt?

Can anyone else confirm the same ??

 

Yes mines same

 

Mine looked more expensive too.
How do you do the 10 month payment thing ?

Is that not a option yet ?
Can't see how I choose it.

You all missed the disclaimer.

* Price freeze indicates the cost of your season ticket will remain unchanged, however there will be an additional charge of £10 per transaction cos our board members are on mental wages and we need to find money from somewhere to pay them.

 

It's called....... taking the piss!!!!

 

So, not a price freeze then.

Pretty poor transparency trying to pass it off as one, and not something I suspect will go down well. I'm not sure that gaslighting your most loyal group of supporters is an optimal tactic for regaining trust, but how else would you describe seeing that it's £50 more to renew your ticket this season after reading "the Club can confirm that season ticket prices have been frozen, continuing our commitment to help make the cost of attending Oakwell affordable" in the announcement earlier this week.

I'm struggling to view this as anything other than a terrible PR blunder.

 

I paid £195 for my Ponty End senior ticket for this season, even though I've hardly used it. Next season's price is also £195. I'm not renewing, but it does look like a freeze on the face of it.

 

That's a price increase though whichever way you look at it. If the renewal price was X amount and it is now higher then regardless of the reason the price has increased

 

This price freeze is fantastic.

Brilliant.

It’s £5 difference in total price this year for me and my lad (he’d have qualified for u14 last season but it didn’t exist so I had to pay u19, and he doesn’t qualify this time so he stays u19).

But last year we got two adult sized shirts and eventually two books of shiny vouchers which got him some free pop with a hot dog a few times.

So, if we choose to renew and then also choose to buy a shirt each, it’s likely to be at least £90-£100 more this season.

If that’s a freeze I’d hate to see an increase.

£50 loyalty thing or not, they can dress it up as they like. It’s nothing but disingenuous to suggest the price hasn’t gone up for loyal supporters.

 

BFC shitting on loyal supporters again! What's new!

 

I'll check........

Just checked, I paid £195 on 10th March 2021. However, I didn't have a ticket in the covid season, so maybe that's the reason?

 

So if you get a replica shirt that's missing from the price next season you're looking at around 100 quid increase?

 

That's my take on it. People will see "price freeze" and automatically expect to pay the same as last season. I have no problem with them reverting to the 19/20 price, but a better explanation in the comms would have headed off a whole load of grief. Fans are wound up enough. The slightest sniff of anything underhand and it's a red rag to a bull.
