HASSRA Wales Discount Scheme

 

HASSRA Wales Discount Scheme is open to all HASSRA Wales members and allows them to claim a  refund, after the event has taken place, towards the ticket costs associated with attending NON sporting events in the UK such as Concerts and Theatre performances.

Claims MUST be made AFTER the event has been attended*  

The scheme has been updated with changes that apply from 1st February 2022 as follows:

With effect from 1st February 2022 members can claim the full ticket(s) cost up to a maximum of £25 per claim.  

For example:

• You and  your partner attend an event and the cost of each ticket was £11.50. You can submit a claim for the full  cost of  the tickets, £23 
• You, your partner and 2 children  attend an event for which tickets are £5 each. You can submit a claim for all 4 tickets, costing £20 in total, and are entitled to be paid £20
• You and 2 friends attend an event for which tickets are £21 each. You can submit a claim for yourself and one guest and are entitled to be paid the maximum of £25 for that claim 
• You and another HASSRA Wales member attend an event for which tickets are £24 each. You should each submit your own, individual claims and you would be entitled  to claim the full cost of  your own ticket, £24

The scheme is further updated with effect from 1st February 2023 as follows:

Once*** per calendar year HASSRA Wales  members can reclaim  the purchase cost of tickets, or £25 (whichever is the lesser amount), for a non sporting event that takes place in the UK. This scheme applies to the member attending the event and covers one additional partner, or guest, and any of the member's children up to a maximum of £25 per claim.     The temporary uplift to 2 claims per year, offered as a result of the lifting of COVID restrictions, is revoked with effect from 1st February 2023 and the number of claims reverts to one per year from that date.    

Claims made before 31st January 2023 for any event within the preceding 12 months will count as a claim for the previous year where the maximum number of claims have not already been paid**.

From 1st February 2023 any claim made for an event in the preceding 12 months will be counted towards the member's one claim limit for 2023

• Amount payable, for each event, is limited to a maximum of  £25 per claim, or the cost of tickets, whichever is the lesser amount
• Claims should be made AFTER attending the event and should be submitted with copies of tickets or ticket stubs* 
• Theme parks, Zoos, Stately homes  etc are regarded as venues or attractions, not events. Claims on entry tickets for these are not eligible under this scheme

*Any claims made before the event will be rejected.  Early claims, that have been rejected on that basis,  may be re-submitted  after the event has been attended

** In recognition of  the increased appetite to attend events following  COVID 19 restrictions, the number of claims allowed  was raised to two a year until   31st January 2023 .  Claims made by 31st January 2023  for events attended in the preceding 12 months will be counted towards the 2 claim limit unless that limit is already reached, in which case  in which case the claim will be counted as a 2023 claim.

***  With effect from 1st February 2023 the scheme is reverting to one claim per member for any event attended in the preceding 12 months
