    Thanks for this! I was worried I wouldn’t get a ticket as the club told me in now in group C despite being in group A for the last 5 years but it let me purchase!

    That takes the piss for a relegation battle.

    £40 to watch Buendia, Grealish and Hughes humiliate us?

    Category A = £40, Category B = £35, Category C = £30
     
  9. Now they are saying that you no longer need the WFC app, but will able to send tickets from the watford website ticketing bit (which still has Barnsley on even though Barnsley have cancelled) directly to Google/Applepay.

    So I have logged into their site on my phone and the tickets for Villa are there as are my Season tickets, but the option to download them or share them with a friend is not.

    How much longer does one give this before one just calls up and pretends to have a non NFC phone?

    Plain English it’s not. They’ve released a picture of the author.

    Some of our fan base may struggle with the technology.

    It's very simple. You turn up on match day and claim your phone doesn't work. Get a paper ticket and get in that way. That's what I'll be doing 19 times this season.

    I'm still a young guy, well I like to think I am anyway, but I'm ******* useless with technology. The email used for my Watford ticket account will be different to my Google pay email, is that going to be a problem?

    I just checked, my phone does not have NFC...sigh....just another level of complexity to add to my life. I might just start supporting Bristol Rovers, it's closer and easier.

    Likewise, this sort of thing goes straight over my head.

    Fortunately, I can rely on my 71 year old IT illiterate dad to sort things out.

    I think you're one of the lucky ones.

    Shouldn't matter.

    You'll log into your account using your fan ID, download the ticket, and your phone will put it into the locally installed Google Play app.

    I think the club have made it sound a lot more difficult than it really is. They would probably be better served making a video demonstrating the process - it would eliminate much of the confusion.

    Nice one, thanks for that. Thought I'd better try and get my head around it now rather than the day of the Villa game. I think they did actually send out a video with the season ticket renewal stuff but it didn't help me!

    Anyone else receive email
    What's the betting, they wouldn't use YouTube but make us subscribe to some obscure start-up service to view said video.

    That email is gibberish to me. “seatGeek”? “near field communication”? Can’t wait.

    It doesn't work for me. I have done everything they say but it still doesn't work.
    The Watford app and the new ticket system is rubbish :(

    It’s disappointing, having gone through all the aggravation to set up apps on my family group to now have to create profiles on the new booking site so that they can log into their accounts to load season tickets to their Apple wallets.

    we bought the Barnsley tickets partly as a trial run, but I suppose we have three weeks to get the season tickets in wallets.

    I like the use of mobile phones for tickets, and use many businesses from package holidays and flights, to theatre tickets without this level of confusion. Hey ho, I am sure it will be ok on the day.

    Comms around this have been shambolic. 80% of fans won’t do anything about their tickets before the day before the game which will be a disaster for the club. Just let us use our cards FFS.

    Presumably they'd have had to set profiles up on the booking website at some point anyway?

    I've just set mine up. Ticket comes through but I have no option to download it and add it to my wallet? Is that just me or everyone else the same?

    Do we have to download each match ticket to our wallet and not just a season ticket?

    Same for me. I suspect they're just getting the system in place for now, & we'll be able to download the tickets to google/apple pay (NFC) nearer the time.

    Individual tickets for each game would suit me to be honest. If I can't make a game I can let someone else use my ticket without needing my phone to get into the ground.

    Yep, no option to download yet. I'm assuming it'll happen closer to the season starting.

    How do you find out what Group you are in? I'm sure this used to be pretty easy on the old system but I'm logged in and can't see that anywhere.

    You need to buy a Nokia 3310, play Snake 10 times and your away ticket group is your average score.

    They will now. In the past i bought all the tickets through my profile and allocated it to their IDs. Simple when tickets fulfilled in a physical format. Now i need to create new profiles, simply so they can add tickets to their wallets on their phones.

    We only added the app to all phones for the ticket fulfilment, so it might end up getting deleted.
