Nexstar Posted 24 July, 2011 Share Posted 24 July, 2011 Just got home to find mine missing the first 8 games. Will get on the phone tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexstar Posted 25 July, 2011 Share Posted 25 July, 2011 Right... Just got off of the phone with the ticket enquiries line (the 0845 6889288 number rather than the sales one). I'd barely finished telling the woman on the other end what had happened before she apologised. Apparently they're trying to work out which was the dodgy batch but in the meantime are laboriously phoning through everybody that's bought one to check whether they've been affected. She asked me to destroy my current booklet and said there'll be a full one on its way in the post today. Seems reasonable in terms of how little effort I had to put in, but I can see a few problems arising if people don't destroy their old booklets. Or if there's a few chancers they phone who claim theirs is incorrect when it isn't. Cynical I know, but not impossible. Pretty big cock-up in all. Glad I've got mine sorted, but looking at the bigger picture this could give the club headaches all season. Do you think there might be some kind of verification process before they send the tickets out next year? Cheers for that number. Rang the regular one and they said I'd have to post it back, so I tried yours and the lady said there would be one in the post today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted 25 July, 2011 Share Posted 25 July, 2011 When I rang up I was told I had to post mine back in. Anyone know Cortese' email address. I would like a cheque to cover the costs of the 1st Class Stamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weston Saint Posted 27 July, 2011 Share Posted 27 July, 2011 Mine has not arrived yet despite all those near me in the Stadium receiving theirs, and we paid the same time in early July. However email response I had within hours of sending an enquiry Your season ticket is currently due to be printed out, the season tickets do not come out in any specific order unfortunately. However your season ticket will be posted out over the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintframmy Posted 27 July, 2011 Share Posted 27 July, 2011 Received my ST`s yesterday, all 7! and only 2 started from game 1. Hubby rang the office this morning and was told, to bring them back down to the stadium and they would simply staple the other 8 games back into the books! And yes they were full payment, not part payment tickets! AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!! Same old, same old!

stevegrant Posted 27 July, 2011 Share Posted 27 July, 2011 Got mine on Friday, only had 9-23.

Matthew Le God Posted 27 July, 2011 Share Posted 27 July, 2011 Really is amazing they didn't have a ticket checking system before they posted them out. A simple double check would have most likely prevented this. Luckily mine was okay, but it seems quite widespread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, but that doesn't mean he hasn't given them all to his mate who's already in the ground. Not Steve, but the turnstile operator doesn't know what he's like... This does actually have some quite serious repercussions for ground safety - if it wasn't for the fact that you could probably get 60,000 people into the seated areas standing up, and that not everyone who has got voucher booklets has two copies of matches 1-8 it could turn out to be quite a problem. Match 9 will also be interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better pricing - fundamentally best selling point, they also had them on sale during the run in to the season which allowed them to cash in on the feelgood factor of a winning team and promotion.

Saints4Prem Posted 29 July, 2011 Share Posted 29 July, 2011 I got mine on Wednesday (4) and all short of the first 8 games so I made the call to 0845 6889288 (thanks Nextstar) got straight through and told them all four were short. They said they would put them in the post and yes I got a letter this morning unfortunately with only one book in. (The kids and my dad are distraught as I am the only one sure of going to the Leeds game). I hope they get it right after my next call but how are they going to cope from the 9th game on with all the tickets out there. I have not been asked to return mine or destroy them. I have now decided to pay my pound and visit the ticket office tomorrow when I get the kids new shirts and return my books when they hopefully they give me the correct ones.

I'd have settled for not having to do a 360mile round trip to pay in instalments. TBF we would pretty much sell ST's whatever happened, and it isn't a terrible deal, £16 a game is pretty good. Football has always been expensive at St Marys. This year looks expensive as last year was so good. Plus Brighton have the opposite connundrum. They want to sell as many as possible, in the new stadium, they have been playing in a 7k seater for ages and if they crash and burn in the NPC they won't get a return. Simples. p.s Have they really sold 18k ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
