    would cinemas accept sight of etickets on a smartphone, rather than printed one?


    I see one I just did has a QR code on, for scanning (by??)


    If you read the small print, SFF advise you print as not all cinemas will accept viewing it on your phone. It's often because they are counting how many have gone in .

    Does anyone know if there is a minimum age for showfilmfirst membership please? Wanting to send my 14 year old and her friend to see maze runner foc.

    Thanks :)


    There isn't an age limit as far as I know. Admittance depends on the certificate of the films. You might be best to check FAQs on SFF website.
  • The tickets that just came in for The Imitation Game require a Cineworld Unlimted card. Never seen these come up via ShowFilmFirst before. Am assuming you these cards will actually be checked, unlike where one can usually get away with not having a copy of Heat etc

    Ah, that explains why you can only get one ticket, I was just about to post on here about the one ticket limit. And yes, as you have to pay for membership and get a memberships card for the Cineworld Unlimited i'm sure they will check.

    There is another code where you can book two tickets and no mention of Unlimited or Unlimited logo.

    Checked my ticket and the T&C's are the standard SFF, ID in same name no mention of Unlimited card.

    I've posted it on the thread. Not many locations currently available but that is always subject to change.

    anybody know how the 2 different ticket vouchers just mentioned differ in appearance ?

    Is it mainly the large 'unlimited' logo which makes it obvious they are the ones that need to be checked against an unlimited card

    when you print off the unlimited one the logo prints on the 2nd page so will they check if you are handing them in a one page printout ?

    I think the ticket voucher booked under code for the unlimited screening has a prominent line before the t&cs stating the ticket must be validated with an unlimited card.

    Mine booked under the other code only has the standard SFF t&cs.

    Both on page one as far as I know.

    Thankfully I got a notification from FMUK about the second code and had the full choice of locations. Managed to snag tickets :D

    I'm guessing (hoping) they just gave Cineworld Unlimited members the chance to get tickets before they released them to the rest of us peasants :p
