Topic: Members Sales

[Barneylfc∗]

Didn't they say last week the increase in price of memberships was on the agenda but is being put to the back burner until discussions are had with the supporters groups?

Membership prices were on the agenda for discussion during the meeting. LFC had proposed a small rise for next season but both parties have agreed to pause on this until more meaningful engagement can take place between LFC and the Supporters Board.

Was £37 last year for a full membership I think? so if it's going up to £46 that's over 25% increase 

Light was £27 so an increase of almost 75% if they're doing away with that option.

My renewal email states its £26 for a light membership for next season

Just had my membership email mine is still £26.99 so this looks like just for international fans (for now).

Forgot I had an email about renewal. Mine doesn't have a price on it though. Just says to sign up for auto renewal.

[Barneylfc∗]

Logged into my account (Light) and can renew it now for £27.
Logged into my brothers (Full) and can renew it now for £37.

So yeah, looks like international fans only affected here.

[MightyRed42]

And getting rid of the Light membership... So basically that will almost double what I pay a month just to keep my loyalty...

I had my email from the club today about my membership auto-renewal. They’re going to renew my light membership and not forcing me on to the full.

Just had my membership email mine is still £26.99 so this looks like just for international fans (for now).

But it's not the same global family as the club claim and as per his post

As the international is £9 more for the full and £19 more for the light than the UK one

[alx]

Isn't the price fixed for everyone?
For my Light Membership they say: We’ll take the following payment: GBP 32.10   


They send another email correcting the previous one...

[ScubaSteve]

Yeah, so he got 3 in first ballot ( Everton, Brentford and Arsenal) and 3 in the second ballot (Chelsea, Spurs and Wolves) which bought him up to 6, I've forwarded him 2 from mine (Bournemouth and Luton), giving him 8. Then 3 where from the local sales (Burnley, Sheffield and Palace), giving 11 so the remaining 4 where from late sales (2 of them being 4+, United and City so essentially guaranteed). Just had to graft for Newcastle and Brighton in the late sales. So not been to bad at all.

That’s so good, hoping for something similar next season. I live just outside the L postcode now so the locals aren’t an option anymore.

I got 15 local tickets the first season it was introduced…happy times

This give me hope for wolves! Surely it’ll be 1,200+

Even if we’re not in a title race, I still wanna be there for jurgens final game

[Rob K]

Am I right in assuming once the renewal process has completed in May then it’ll be open for new membership ls then? Want to get my lad a 4years+  one now he’ll be old enough.

[Claire.]

The current ones expire on the 31st May so imagine it'll be open from 1st June as that's when the membership for 24/25 begins.

Same here mate

[RainbowFlick]

Just seen on Reddit that they’re upping the membership price by £9 (25%) to £45.99 next season…

i'm v confused what the exact benefits are to international fans paying this every year? seems a bit of a waste of money other than contributing to the club

Ah sound 👍

someone's posted a thread about it in the main forum, looks like they got a programme and access to the exclusive content but no match access - https://d3j2s6hdd6a7rg.cloudfront.net/uploads/5383__1860__2021-22memb-benefitsv5.pdf

they're saying now they'll get the same benefits as UK members so presumably access to tickets, could be the club's way to direct international members away from touts if they can actually a buy a ticket direct?

ahh interesting. cynically it also means everyone is playing one 'increased' rate which presumably totals more £. seems existing members are frozen, i think?

[Claire.]

I don't think it's that cynical cos there are clearly non-UK based people who have full memberships so it's smells of a cash grab. They will likely dress it as they've had feedback from international members saying they want ticket access 🤷🏻‍♀️ but not tiering it like they do for the other two is, well, shitty.

Another cynical thought I've had is cos they've stated 'UK Members' and 'same benefits as', maybe they're making it so only UK based can be on the light/full going forward? and if you're a non-domestic full member you're going to be pushed on the international?

If you’ve got a successful wait list position am I right in thinking you can’t register for the additional members sale?

I’m tempted to take my chances of getting a Kop ticket for Spurs rather than a guaranteed ARU ticket but guess this isn’t possible

I don't see why you shouldn't be able to, as you wouldn't actually have a ticket at the point of registering.

However I personally wouldn't want to jeopardise a guaranteed ticket, certainly not as things stand.

They said for the Brighton game that anyone who had a guranteed ticket wouldn't receive a link for the AMS. Whether that stops you from seeing the game is another thing. Depends if they actually remove the 'registration' from your purchase history in the background or not.

Not sure I'd risk it.

I registered for the additional members sale for Brighton, I had to as the registration period closed before they announced the waiting list numbers. I then qualified and bought tickets in the waiting list sale and we still received the unique link for the AMS although I didn't have to use it.

I'm covered by the waiting list for Spurs.

However I'll be trying to get a ticket for someone else on 4 credits.
he's stuck in work during the day
*obviously he be registered in the Ballot to qualify

will I be OK or not
