Powerpay at Eagles Stadium

[MURP]

I thought about getting one until I saw I needed to charge $8600 just to get an Eagles digest subscription.

You can count me as one of the ones they'll lose. I've worked very hard to limit the amount of debt & credit cards that I have and I'm not opening a new card so I can buy beer/food quicker.

Powerpay was a good program but I can't buy into this.

Exactly.

You know who started this trend?  Snyder.

You can run that type of tab up in a game or two can't ya?  Don't tell me married life has you going all lightweight now.

Well well look at the great roundup of 2005, trying to heard all the sheep, to sign up for their affinty card.

Memo to the front office farg Off.  If you will not let me use my choice of plastic to control my own spending, I'll go back to ca$h.

I sit in the Club section so I have a beer wench and dont need to wait in line, so this has little real impact on me, but the Paypass was a nice system (I put it on a laynard and had my waitress wear it the whole game, I could signal for a beer from 10 rows away without her running up the steps to collect the cash).

I resent being baited by an ideal system (for the customer) last year and switched to one that favors $$$$ the club this year.

You no longer can use your own CC or debit card to link it to. You HAVE to get the credit card in order to use it. I just got off the phone with them. Its the same thing at the Phillies games with this paypass thing.

I just told the chick at guest services that they're going to lose a TON of customers over this. Not many people are going to want to take out a new credit card just to have faster access at concession stands. The whole convenience of it was it coming out of a debit or credit card you already owned. She didn't agree....she's a farging idiot.

Same here. I did get an Eagles Extra Points card when I filled out one of those "get a free gift" things in Jacksonville. It's probably the same MBNA MasterCard that they're using for the pass...maybe. PG, is there something build into their card like what was in the PowerPay thingie?

its the same card but it must contain the power pass chip...i got mine last october and it does not contain it...i think if the card has the chip in it it will say power pay or power pass on it

to know for sure call mbna @ the 800 # on the back of your card

I got the MBNA Extra Points Mastercard when I got my Pay Pass FOB, and if it says "Pay Pass" on the credit card, it is enabled to use at the concession stands. Fortunately, mine has the designation on it, so it should work (per the e-mail from the Eagles/MBNA/PayPass).

Werd.  For the first time in my life, I have zero debt other than my mortgages.

Credit cards are "teh evil" as far as I'm concerned.

Leave it up to the Eagles to pimp themselves out yet again at the expense of the fans...
