The former, I think.

This is actually dead easy. I looked at all the instructions and thought oh can't be bothered with this, but having gone into the App, looked at tickets, seen both mine and my lads season ticket for Newcastle game in there, clicked add to wallet and job jobbed in 10 seconds.

I can't make Saturday and transferring the ticket to my brother was a piece of piss too.

Finally received an email about the changes at 12:45

All very unVilla like this.

We both just received this email following the receipt of print at home Newcastle tickets yesterday...

We’ve reviewed your application for a physical season card and can confirm that your application has been approved.

Your season card will be sent to your registered address shortly.
Please note, we are unable to distribute cards before the Newcastle fixture. A Print-at-Home ticket will be sent to you for this match.

I see the Villa App has updated and you need IOS 16 or above so it's not enough to have a smart phone - you now can't have a very old smart phone.

Fixed it for you being as IOS 16 is supported on 8 year old devices. (Which is ancient in phone tech terms).

Up until today, the phone had done everything I need it to, including getting into Villa Park.  I like the smaller size and I didn't see the need to fork out on a new one. I'd rather not have a smart phone altogether if possible because I think they are like mental crack cocaine.  Now 3 days before the season starts, I find out I need to buy a new one to use the season ticket I bought for nearly a grand.

Pop along to CEX as they might have a decent newer edition which runs IOS16 minimum. It doesn't need to be an iPhone but something running whatever version of Google OS that works with the Villa App as you normally have more choice and the handsets are generally cheaper. But if wanting Apple, and assuming you are talking about the older smaller size one, the SE Second generation runs IOS16, and is as physically small as the older iPhones in size, although the screen is bigger due to no borders around it.

However in the long run  it isn't just Villa Park which wants newer phones but modern life in general. Payment, travel tickets, concert tickets, even Proof of ID will be using smart phones more and more.

That's really helpful thanks.

My mistake on size. SE v2 is slightly bigger in size with 5.45 × 2.65 × 0.29 in instead of 4.87 in x 2.31 in x 0.30 in but that is still alot smaller then the smallest current number iphone. Version 3 is the same size as V2. Both will run upto IOS 18 which is the current version, although I suspect V2 will not go passed that.

Again, fantastically helpful, thanks. I've just read that by the Palace game, all tickets for the season will be available at once. If that is true, and the old version of the app is still running, I might get away with it for this season. I am going to copy and paste your message and save it for when I need it.

Clever way for Villa to weed out some of the OAP concession tickets re. the smart phones...

Someone on twitter is saying that to forward to a ST ticket to one of your contacts they have to pay the difference between the ST price and a normal match ticket, is that correct?!

[Walmley_Villa]

I’ve just seen that too - very crafty!

[Clampy]

And very greedy.
