[Albion] Adding my son to account

Vin said:

Hi all

Any advice on adding my son to my account to purchase junior tickets? I can’t seem to buy a junior ticket or add him online. If I set up an account for him I can’t use my email address as already have my account on the email address. I’ve tried calling the club and was on hold for over 30 mins.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Create a second email account for him and link both accounts as friends and family

That’s what I had to do

Thanks for posting. I have just registered him under different email address. Trying to purchase the seat next to mine but only allows me to purchase Adult ticket prices? He is 7 years old. Is this just a case that this seat is for Adults only?

The best way is probably to give them another ring.

Some of the central Lower West are adult only pricing, everywhere else once you allocate the seat to your son, the lower price should pop up.

Top tip: If you have a gmail account instead of creating another email address you can add +SOMETHING to it which will get delivered to your inbox. For example if I had bnthree@gmail I could do bnthree+MYSON@gmail and it would still get delivered to my inbox. Saves having to have 2 inboxes. (Note the addition doesn't have to do in capitals, that's just to make it clearer.)

Couldn’t get through twice. About an hour of waiting in total. The chat online is with a Bot as well.

Type “Agent” and you’ll get a human (in office hours).

After typing AGENT

I'm sorry, but it looks like I don't have the answer to your question, and the Supporter Services team aren't available at the moment. You can try again another time, or call us on 01273 668855 (option 1: 9am to 5pm. Mon to Fri). Alternatively, close this chat and start again, asking a different question.

Sorry. It worked for me a few weeks back!

Does your email account allow the use of aliases? For instance gmail allows 10 (I think) aliases by adding + to the end of the personal part of the email address - so yourname@gmail.com could have an alias of yourname+childa@gmail.com. The email aliases get directed to your inbox.


I see [MENTION=34787]BNthree[/MENTION] has already given this advice, clearly I'm neither the first nor last person to use this workaround!

Thanks. Wasn't aware of this. Had to buy adult ticket in the end.
