Blue Light Card (Event Tickets) Work Email?
10 Answers
Hi,
I have a blue light card, being a retired NHS employee.
I recently applied for the card having retired last year.
I am aware that they also run the Blue light tickets website, as a thank you for working through covid times (which I did between March 2020 and October 2021).
However I cannot register for blue light ticket events as I no longer have an official work email address.
I have registered my primary email address with blue light tickets and I have confirmed that on the email which I received.
I cannot request any tickets though, as I've no way of confirming my works email address (as I no longer have one since I'm now retired).
I've contacted them and received a reply that blue light tickets are 'a thank you for people who worked through covid' and not retired members?
Which is tough and I feel unfair, as I did spend over 18 months working through covid times.
Anyhow, I just wondered if anyone has any advice or could assist me in confirming and finalising membership to blue light tickets section of my blue light card membership?
It seems crazy that now I have the spare time to attend such events I'm not entitled to?
Thanks in advance.
I'd really like tickets to see Tears for Fears which have appeared on their website.
The sole purpose of joining is to ask this question.
Thanks again.

I just wondered if anyone had been in my position, that's all.
Ed Sheeran has always been anti 'Scalping' so I imagine he found out that blue light tickets were being sold on prior to his Glasgow concerts.
I can't see how you can join blue light card, pay their admin' fee, and only be entitled to part of the service.
Claiming that retired members couldn't have worked through covid is incorrect.

and
"The use of this website is reserved for those of the UK's Emergency Services, NHS and Armed Forces. The qualification criteria for this service is determined by Blue Light Card trading as Blue Light Tickets Ltd. Members must be aged 16+ to qualify."
Both are in the present tense and since you are an ex-NHS employee, you don't satisfy their criteria.

so are the tickets on blue light tickets free? If so, it doesnt surprise me at all that that they are limiting them to current staff only.
I suppose you could claim that as it was "missold" to you as a service, you want to leave and be refunded your admin fee (although from what i remember it isnt very much)
