You must add your VALUEclub number to your online My Account before making an online purchase in order to receive your points. If you do not have your VALUEclub card with you at the time of transaction you can bring your receipt to any Customer Service desk within 14 days of your purchase and the points will be added to your account. This does not apply to purchases made in our online store." We have the same problem with some people thinking a picture of a ticket on a phone will get them entry to the Aviva stadium. No chance. Also 99% of scanners that use a red laser cannot scan from a mobile anyway.

I may be wrong but Dunnes have cooperated with Android Pay up to this point to incorporate their barcode types and logo into the list of cards available in the app. I don't think Google would have done that off their own bat.

prinzeugen wrote: » Just because a phone version of something can be created does not mean that the company must accept it. Dunnes may have done it for online purchases but not in shop ones. Until they update the conditions, you must presume that only the plastic card will be accepted for adding points at the till.
TheChizler wrote: » It does work, it's the value club card layout on your phone with barcode and number. Entirely seperate to the payment part of Android Pay, just happens to be accessed through the same app basically. I've certainly paid over €30 in Dunnes with my phone anyway, maybe not all stores are set up for it.

If you have a fake/somebody else's ticket you can gain entry you shouldn't have. You take advantage. Where if you have a fake/somebody else's card, and scan it, you do not gain anything. No advantage to you. So what's the point? Dunnes instead putting points to your account puts them to somebody else's. Not losing anything on the process, just different account. As for scanners, even if they won't scan from phone you could just give them the number, but they won't take it. I just don't like the fat wallets, I've got a very slim wallet and very happy with it, the reason is so slim is there is no space for 10 different cards. The clubcard key fob they give me gets destroyed by keys after few weeks. So just trying to learn why can't we get those clubcard digitalised for our convenience? Thanks.

prinzeugen wrote: » Its is Dunnes scheme so they can run it how they wish. They won't take the number as the card must be presented as per the T&C. But why should they (or any other company) digitalize everything for the benefit of a few people that can't be bothered to carry stuff? What % of club card users are one of the "I do everything on my phone" people? Very little nationally I think. I have a wallet that holds 10+ cards, cash (notes) and all the other stuff you collect and its no thicker than my phone. Its one of the Puma IRFU from Elverys ones if you need a more suitable wallet!
prinzeugen wrote: » You can buy stuff online from Dunnes.. They may have it set up that if buy online and pay using android etc in the future, the points will automatically be applied. It does mention online purchases in the T&C. Sounds right up googles street as they can watch what you buy and bombard you with ads.

Judging by this thread I'm not the only one that would be happy with getting rid of the physical clubcards from my wallet. And no I'm not looking for an advice on new wallet! I recommend you to buy yourself a purse or a suitcase and carry a cash with you instead of credit or debit card. Because why would you want to carry less stuff? Thanks.

Toto Wolfcastle wrote: » I'd agree with this. A good example is Boots. I don't visit often, and I usually have my card with me, but not always. They have a really good app that allows you to load coupons onto your advantage card so that you don't have to carry paper coupons with you. I've just had a good look through the app and I can't see any option to scan the app rather than your card, although your card number is stored on the app. It would make a lot more sense to scan the phone since they already have an app.

Have you tried the same at concerts or sports events? Good luck. Are you the tit that claimed to work for google last year? 12 print at home tickets on his phone. Went ape when told to go and print them off. Go print the F#£%&-+g things! Its for security or cost reasons that they don't do it. Live with the fact that you need a plastic card or a paper ticket. And stop being lazy. Its a bit plastic that is mm thick. Would you remove the tax and NCT from a car and keep pictures on the phone? NO. T&C are there for a reason! Think this is a "I have a €1000 phone" and I expect it to do my thinking for me thread.
