Hofstra Jet Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 When I entered the parking lots today, I showed the attendant my phone, and she says "You're good." That was it. No scan, no nothing. I could have showed her anything, and I could have just driven in. I thought to myself, this is crazy. People pay good money for these things, I might as well just sell it. Within 5 minutes, I had it transferred to a friend, he listed on Stubhub, and it sold for 32 bucks. Did anyone have their pass scanned? I hope this continues. I will do this every game that I attend. I also took a picture of this pass from my Apple Wallet, so who knows, maybe I will just show this one again and see if it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What probably happened is the gate you pulled up to was having technical problems. They are absolutely still scanning barcodes. The one I was at had a long line. I know someone else who they couldn't get the barcode to read. So they manually typed in the # to verify it. They are definitely not putting us on the honor system. That would be great.

Hofstra Jet Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 I entered via the J parking lot. Maybe you are right. Im sure they will fix this. Tonight I made a few bucks back though, so I was happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure they need an internet connection since if two people print a barcode only the first one gets in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had tickets in the Metlife 50 club tonight, and the scanner for that wasn't working either. They had to copy our ticket seats and number to get in.

Went to a booth in the middle of the array and showed the lady our phone and she said exactly what you were told. We had a long conversation with her. Said she forgot her glasses and really couldn't read the phone anyway. She seemed to have no idea what was going on with the mobile tickets. Nice lady however. Weird experience.

I paid for the item, used the item, and then decided I had no more use for said item, so I decided to give another person an opportunity to own my item for the right price. I paid full price for my original item, so I am missing the theft part of this. The Jets decided that I showed enough to gain entry into a parking lot.

I guess they don’t teach ethics at Hofstra the biggest theft is the jets charging 35 dollars for pre season parking!! How crazy is this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my style. The Moral Code has to start somewhere. This philosophy has never served me well personally or in business though and I have seen many people gain from the opposite. My take on the whole thing was hoping that the booth lady didn't get in trouble that night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were long lines AND they were taking cash from cars without passes which took too long. Same thing happened in pre season last year. By the time the reg season began, they figured it out.

Dcat Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 here's the problem: they want everyone to use mobile but they are not prepared with sufficient 4G service or powerful enough wifi for the thousands upon thousands of cell phones seeking a connection. They better figure it out before the Dolphin game or it will be terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunnie Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Did you list your pass as an already redeemed parking pass on stub hub ?

sec143dmf Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 The whole mobile scanning situation is a mess not just with parking but with the seats as well. People were sitting wherever they wanted. After I used the bathroom people were sitting in my seats which I stupidly paid psl fees and good money for my season tickets. The guy “giants fan” refused to move and of course an argument started. Now since I have one strike on my record “ no reason to go in to detail” I had to walk away from a fight. As I was leaving another guy walks up the tunnel and says to the attendant this is section 143 right? I mean anyone can read no? To which he replies yea go ahead. Didn’t check any barcode/phone etc... just another reason why I regret ever paying for my tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InstantClassic Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Batman you are truly making a difference with your moral police work in this thread. The real crime is the fans who pay thousands of dollars every year to watch mediocre at best football. It isn’t the OP’s fault the employee didn’t check..good on him to recoup some preseason money. Yeesh..I don’t know how the Johnson’s were able to afford groceries this weekend thanks to this incident..we should check on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunnie Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Are you kidding me ? No one out a gun to anyone's head to buy anything let alone season tickets. People that bought PSLs should have known this as a likely possibility. Just sell the tickets on stub hub .. that alone is highway robbery Batman you are truly making a difference with your moral police work in this thread.
