Scramble Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Cinema prices are ridiculous Here we pay £5.10 if you're a teenager, but if you're an adult you only pay £4.00! If you want to see a 18 apparently they still make you pay the teen charge not the adult one, same goes for 16's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I know what you mean about cinema prices, here its £5.20 for a child and £7.20 for an adult, I tried to get a child ticket (and succeeded) for a U film, I got asked for ID! But when I try and see a 15 film I still get asked for ID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisP Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I got ID'd at the cinema when I was 15, because I wanted to pay a childs price, because I was a child! My response was that until I was 17/18, why would I need to carry round ID? I couldn't drive so didnt have a drivers lisence, couldn't smoke or drink, so didn't need ID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Does the council do any sort of subsidy for travel for those still in education? We have these cards, but I think they are subsidised by the bus company and not the council. If you are over 16 but under 18 and in full time education you will need a 16-18 Photocard to obtain child rate season tickets. To be eligible you must live within the West Midlands county. 16 -18 Photocards cost £5.00 and replacements cost £3.00. Both are issued by post Tbh, I've never ordered one because I hardly ever use the bus and you have fill in a form and get it signed by your form tutor and get the school stamp and they always moan when they have to do them!

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I got ID'd last year for a half of bitter in Dorset. I was 33! I didn't have any proof of age ID as I'm so old! I then had another half and told them I'd better leave it at that as I needed to be home in time for Teletubbies! They looked at me funny.
