For those that went 'upstairs' on Saturday - how rigourously are they checking the Amex cards? I've got one but it expired a while ago........

Log-in card details by a helper on an iPad, and asked for the names of your 3 guests. It wasn't just wave a screenshot as some anticipated.
Three guests. Available for every game.
Feels a bit cheeky that it seems it's being acknowledged the high ticket price is due to the DJ (whoever they may be, could be like The Masked Singer), yet they can't say who it is.
No one can complain if it is DJ Locadia, as there is no mis-selling.

Seriously? They were collecting card details? Not just a transaction they were actually noting them down? There are significant FCA/PRA regulations regarding collecting/storing card details compared to using a 3rd party payment broker, I'm VERY surprised that BHA want that level of regulation on top of them. I do hope that someone at the club hasn't made a boo boo here, the fines for doing so are eye watering.

Judging by the number of folks applying for the no-fee Amex card these past few days, that number of guests per cardholder seems sure to be whittled down pretty sharpish

Absolutely no idea regarding legal stuff but we had the card details taken and logged.
No big deal really.

That was not my experience. I just showed my card and then literally pointed at my three guests to make sure they let the right people as I sped up the stairs.

Interesting. Maybe I just bypassed the normal process. Will see what happens next time.

Think there will be more STH with Amex cards than without soon enough.

Registered my card number but not my guests names. I assume it's to stop people reusing cards to get more people in

I'd like to think that BHA will deal with such personal information in a responsible and confidential manner.....what could possibly go wrong?Well until you card is being hammered in Spain or something

Well for a start you need an operating license. Have the club got this? Who knows. But I can't think why they would have. All of their stadium/shop/ticketing digital transactions, including online, will be via a broker like a WorldPay, it is the broker who processes and stores the card details, the broker is tightly regulated and licensed to do this. If BHA have stored card details digitally or even on paper without a license to do so then they would be in a shit load of trouble.

Is the upstairs at the terrace adults only?
They store plenty of other personal data; I’m sure they know what they’re doing.
