Quick question.... I know they say I should print my ticket, but does anyone know if I can just bring it up on my mobile and wave that at the scanner instead? Seems like a waste of paper and more inconvenient.

I've done the mobile thing for gigs etc so figured it should work.

No - the scanners are an insert type (Card and paper have to be put in a slot)

In TR you have to insert the ticket to be scanned so it wouldn’t work with a phone

Cheers folks. I'll print it then!

Especially if it's a mass debate.....

So I printed the ticket. And then tried my phone.

Phone worked no problem as the gap is plenty big enough.

A few matches ago going into the Holte I was told yes, but not with eg an iPhone or anything built for smart pay.
A steward had earlier helped a lad by taking a pic of the phone with his own phone to help him in, but said it didn’t work as he was scamming.
Either way I took a pic of my phone with my work phone and used that, though imagine putting it in flight mode might also have worked?
