Looks like I'm gonna be doing what you suggested earlier and driving to the BO tomorrow to try and sort this mess out. Lucky I've got the day off work tomorrow!!
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

Are there any fans who have found this incredibly easy like me. Maybe this ticketing process must be focused at a certain generation. I have downloaded my Brentford ticket and season tickets with no problems at all.
I did read that Everton are offering card tickets for £5. Perhaps this is a good option for teams moving forward.

Like I said I downloaded what I thought was my ST to google pay, only when you click the details button on google pay it’s someone else’s ticket. My client ref number on the app is correct. So yes it is easy to download but you expect when you do it to have the correct ticket

So I've found which of the four season tickets is the right one to add to my wallet, and I have my 'pass' for the Spurs game. What happens if I want to transfer my ticket for games I can't make? My two kids share a ticket. How does that work? I want to believe I can just screenshot the code and send it to the person using my ticket but someone said that's not going to work and someone else said when they tried to screenshot the code it said they were unable to for security reasons. Fundamentally, is sharing a season ticket now officially not allowed? If that's the case it's a massive liberty and will surely affect lots of people?

Maybe the queue will be long enough to justify having a burger van stationed outside the BO too.

Instructions now on CPFC website. I’ve deleted my mates sons ticket from google pay and added mine, it was quite easy. For those who have purchased more than one ST say for family member / friend, if they have a smart phone, if you add the palace app follow the. Instructions on the CPFC website think it’s option 2 for downloading from the ticket website on the app (I know it sounds confusing) you can select which ever ticket you want click add to mobile wallet and it literally is done in seconds,

This is absolutely ridiculous, I’ve been going since 1963, I think I’ll just call it a day, wonder if I can get a refund for my season ticket.

You must have the latest CPFC App installed on your phone which was posted on the CPFC website on 2 September under the News section. Once logged in do the following. Click on your initials top right. My Account. More... bottom left. Tickets. Access Fan Wallet. Season Ticket. Save to Phone.
You must also have Chrome set as your default browser and not Samsung Internet. To change go to Settings > Apps > Samsung Internet > Browser App > Chrome. Terrible info from the club and believe me I'm awful with modern day technology, so if I can do it, anyone can, good luck.
Thank you Epsom Eagle for those few words "have Chrome set as your default browser and not Samsung Internet". Like most people, I was having trouble, but I saw your tips and I now have the S/T set up. Cheers!

Literally took me ten seconds.
Not sure why the browser is relevant as it's an app based delivery – open app, go to more, fan wallet, save season. Done.
I appreciate the lack of detail from the club well in advance isn't ideal, but from some of the responses on here it makes it sound like the game kicks off in an hour and you need to travel 20 miles to pick up a paper ticket.
Getting a digital ticket, instantly, that you will then use for the rest of the season (no other downloads required) 48 hours before the next game is hardly a reason to panic.

Consumer rights legislation deals - among many other issues - with "contracts". I am no lawyer, but I have little doubt that when someone purchases a season ticket from a football club, a contract is made in which the latter undertakes to allow the purchaser entry to all advertised home league matches, without new conditions subsequently being imposed. Insisting on acquiring a smartphone strikes me as a new condition, and grounds for a refund. Any lawyers out there?

I'm glad that you are ok but obviously all of this causes a lot of stress to a lot of people including me. What about people who don't have smartphones? Elderly people who find this confusing? People with learning disabilities? What actually is the rationale for moving to this system? Why is this system with all the palaver it causes preferable to getting a physical card?

Dear CPFC Having looked at the Holmesdale site last night, I realised that people were receiving season tickets. Neither myself nor my son (linked on Friends and Family) had received any communication about this - my last e mail was 16 August regarding the Brentford match. Today I tried to download the season ticket and, after downloading Google Pay, continually get the message that 'This item cannot be saved on this device'. A further look at the instruction says that Google Pay must be set as the default payment mechanism. However, I do not use a credit card and only use my Barclays Debit Card - and this card is set as my default payment through the Barclays app - I am not going to set Google Pay as my default payment method, and do not believe that you should be instructing me to do this. I had to leave work to travel to the Box Office and realised that many others are having similar issues - the staff at the box office were becoming extremely frustrated. A look at the Holmesdale site shows extreme upset across a wide section of the fan base about the situation. I have now had to get 2 paper tickets for the Spurs match. Please advise me urgently how I am to access my season ticket for the next home game.

I think the club forgot that a number of older Season Ticket holders are not good at IT and are finding it difficult to follow the instructions, I just about managed to get mine onto the Google Pay App, but can well understand the difficulties some folks are having.

I went out with a mate last night [ yes I do have one ] who is an Arsenal season holder . I asked if his club had the same shambles that we are having . He was given the options of either using his smart phone or staying with his old plastic ST card . He chose the card as it was less hassle . Why could we not been given the same choice ?

My iPhone version is old an not compatible for the App. I’ve tried the website link and logged in but still cannot find my tickets. Box office are overwhelmed and not answering calls so I’ve emailed them instead.
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE SHAMBLES!!
