Or just be claiming benefits? | | | |
Passport to leisure on 16:23 - Jul 23 with 1167 views | D_Alien | Looks like it. I just knew about the health problem side from my work, but the general idea is to allow access at affordable prices for people to improve their health and lifestyle, so I guess those claiming benefits qualify so they're fit enough to take up work... | |

Just as a matter of interest OD, did you have to fit particular criteria to get it? If you don't want to say, that's fine. But at least let Tazzy know about it! "I got into the ground using an Passport for £10..." | |

Tazzy has used it but got annoyed as they wouldn't give him a discounted season ticket as he had one, as his employment situation may change during the season meaning he would no longer be eligible for the discount. As far as I am aware eligibility for this scheme is dependent on age (students and over 60s) or whether you receive one of the listed benefits, although that will probably change when the universal credit comes into force. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

You have to be either on some sort of benefits or a full time student, or 60+ I think are the main criteria, I figured while I can qualify I'd pick one up. I cant believe Tazzy hasn't already figured that out years ago.. | |

From isitme's reply, it sounds like he'd got one, except hadn't been able to figure out how to utilise it properly. If he was refused a season ticket, he could still get into Spotland for £10 which means he'd save more on a game-per-game basis than if he'd got the season ticket! Duh! | |

In the Pearl St it works out at £12 per game, you have to buy the ticket on matchday and queue up thats the only drawback... | | | |
