CPISA are surprised at the level of price increases being applied to season ticket renewals for the coming season. Having led the way as the only club not to raise prices last season this change in direction and the level of increase applied is disappointing as we understand from the FSA (Football Supporters Association) that a number of other clubs have frozen prices or applied very low increases for the coming season.

I'm sure I read in the renewal email from CPFC that the increase in prices were agreed with the FAB.
Do CPISA have anyone on the FAB ? If not, what influence/voice do you have ?
The information from the club said that they had discussed the season ticket increase with representatives from FAB.
CPISA do have a representative on FAB but if you want to know more details about those discussions you need to ask the clubs FAB.
As for being Influential this is limited, CPISA can only make suggestions through our representative and mostly the clubs fans advisory board seem to be complicit and non confrontational.

A couple of interesting points here:
The club said "The pricing model has been discussed with representatives from our FAB" the important word here is discussed, not agreed. Big difference.
Also it seems, although the club do engage with CPISA or at least have been, they would prefer to only engage with FAB - CIPSA are quoted as saying "The club expressed a wish for the FAB and CPISA to work closer together" also in the last minutes CIPSA say "the club advised CPISA that it did not wish to cover topics that had already been discussed at FAB meetings"
So seems FAB didn't agree/support the increases {the club would have said so if they had}, the club want CIPSA/FAB to work closer together - there is no ONE voice for supporters
PS: Personally, no issues at all with the increase
PPS: CIPSA do a lot of good work and from what I see, probably much better than FAB

I'm concerned that yet again i had to apply for a plastic card even though i proved last year that i can't own/use a smartphone. Hopefully this is just a formality and it is on record now and i just get sent one.
But if not i will be contacting CPISA again as they helped me a lot last year.

CPISA have just changed our FAB (Fan Advisory Board Representative) going forwards to Sandy Weller.
Sue Maisey will still be continuing her vital work for CPISA and all Palace fans as well as attending FSA (Football Supporters Association) and club management meetings.
Keith Powell has joined the FSA 'UEFA working group' in preparation of hopefully what is in store for us all to enjoy next season!
We however could always do with some extra assistance from anyone who would like to join us. email CPISA info@cpisa.co.uk or pm me and register your interest and we will get back to you.

More positive new - keep up the good work
CPISA asked the club about Season ticket waiting list- There seems to be a lot of supporters who are unclear of the system here? Does the club carry over anyone who registers in previous seasons and maintains their number in the queue? Or do supporters have to register each season to refresh their place in the queue? Or is the queue renewed each season? Or does the club choose people from the queue to email for any season tickets that become available? Some clarification would be useful. This is the answer that came back from Paul McGowan Head of Ticketing yesterday.
Yes, supporters who didn’t get a chance to buy a ST last season have retained their place and will be contacted by the box office if availability goes to their place of the waiting list.
Just to give you idea we had close to 2500 supporters who were on the waiting list last season who didn’t get a season ticket. With such a massive renewal phase only 300 of these lucky people will get a season ticket this season. We have emailed the first 300 people, and we will work our way down in date of joining until we have sold out.
This year the churn of Season Ticket holders is particularly low, if you took the previous 3 seasons you there would be an average of 1400 season tickets available, even with that supporters who join today could be waiting for around 5 years to get a season ticket.
In the 10 years of running a season ticket waiting list we have never had so much interest or had so many questions. We are going to writing some FAQ’s around season ticket and away game waiting lists so it will be there for everyone to see going forward, we should hopefully have them published early next week.
CPISA suggest that if you may have been on the waiting list for 2 or 3 years and have not heard from the club yet, you may wish to contact the box office with proof of purchase of the waiting list fee to ascertain where your place might be on said waiting list.
