Norgethistle Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 14 hours ago, Rid Skwerr said: whose bright idea was it that, instead of handing me my 50_50 tickets, I had to give a phone number and leave my tickets with the seller? what that meant was that buying a ticket or two became rather slow experience, the seller was getting writer's cramp, and I had no idea what my numbers were so could not verify whether I had the winning number or not. I also understand that the winner's name was read out at half time. I was not asked for my name, just a phone number. I must have waited maybe 2 minutes to buy because the fan before me had bought 5 tickets and the seller had to copy an 11 digit number five times before he could deal with me. Utter stupidity, in my view, and I can't think of a single Covid related reason why such pointless admin is necessary. Thinking about it now, I wonder if it might actually be illegal to to take a “gambling stake " without giving a receipt. I hope there is a GDPR policy and statement over the collection of phone numbers on the tickets. My dad has his “routine” at Firhill, from what bus he gets, to where he buys his program and the coins in his pocket for where he buys his 50/50 tickets. He doesn’t take a card to the game, he takes cash and his bus pass and his ST, he rarely goes out with a bank card unless he’s going to bank or going to buy something substantial, he won’t be the only one. This will cost the club cash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Surely the club have to issue tickets and publicise the winning number. If this is the way they are intending to run it, it will die very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I typed in Centenary in Search and it came up with June being the latest. I see you go through a different method.

Hopefully the previous winner knows they have won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
