It’s a credit and not a refund.

Charlie Wayman Posted 23 September, 2020 Share Posted 23 September, 2020 If they are going to refund ST holders on a match by match basis, it is going to cost them a fortune in administration costs. Surely this will out weigh any advantage they might have in hanging on to your money 'til the bitter end. Why can't they face up to reality, there will be no fans at football matches this season so just refund all STs that were renewed now in one go? If in the very unlikely event fans can go back for the last 2 or 3 games, just charge per ticket at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure, by my very rough calculation they are sitting on well over £7 million , you can do a lot with that in short term investments. Given the choice I would have a full refund, I think we all purchased on the basis that we would have the opportunity to attend matches from October. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eurosaint Posted 24 September, 2020 Share Posted 24 September, 2020 TBF they are refunding as they said they would, I know it's being 'drip fed' but I don't think that this is unreasonable ! I'm personally much more concerned about having been sold 3 home replica shirts which were out of date even before they were received (I sent them to Belgium & Sth Africa) ! Including postage costs, I'm in for around £200 and have only been advised that "it's complicated and we are working on it" ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toussaint Posted 24 September, 2020 Share Posted 24 September, 2020 (edited) @BenjiPotentially, its an option they could table, along with full refund, or the drip feed refund currently in place. Its not like I'd be losing a lot of interest on it. The point I'm trying to make is that the landscape has changed massively since we coughed up, therefore the restitution plan needs to change accordingly. One thing I can say I'd prefer not to be bummed at all, regardless of the intensity of said bumming😉 Edited 24 September, 2020 by Toussaint did not quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 24 September, 2020 Share Posted 24 September, 2020 Don't knock it until you've tried it. I take your point, but the ST revenue is relatively small compared to the broadcast revenue and as long as we don't get relegated we're in no danger of going udne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The credit from last season was for the games we missed so should be entirely separate. It was easier than them having to refund you the cash.

Renewed 3 tickets over the phone with card and still no £35 discount voucher thing despite also filling in the online form. Sent an email in the end today as tried ringing Tues Wed to no avail. The club really aren't very good at this kind of thing. I know it's difficult times etc, but £1250 is a lot of money so they shouldn't make it this hard.

I haven’t checked my bank balance yet, but I got a phone call and email from the club asking to confirm I wanted the refund paid into the same account I paid from for 4 season tickets. I am in the Saints Bar though (the “cheaper” end of corporate) - maybe they are refunding the dearer tickets first (eg refund for a box holder for Spurs game would be about £1,500, I think?)

miserableoldgit Posted 30 September, 2020 Share Posted 30 September, 2020 I, along with others, didn't realise that the £35 could only be used online. We went to the Megastore, had a nose round and my wife found a hoodie that she liked. We took it to the counter and were told that we couldn't use it in store. I had to buy it online on my phone, put in the code, pay postage (which would later be returned) before we could take the item off the counter. Another couple in the same position came in just after us and had to go through the same procedure....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mozz Posted 1 October, 2020 Share Posted 1 October, 2020 (edited) After renewing I filled out the form and requested a hospitality voucher. Hadn't received anything but figured this was due to the uncertainty around the return to stadiums. Last night I received an e-mail containing: Quote As a thank you for renewing using your credits from your 2019/20 Season Ticket, we offered you a £35 voucher. We noticed you haven't yet requested how you would like your voucher and because we want to make sure you don't miss out, we've included a £35 retail voucher* below, redeemable until Friday 2nd October.

It’s all bargain bucket tat anyway barely worth the time, most of it is sold out and the remainder of the shirts from last season are only left in tent sizes. Saints have to be one of the most stingy clubs in the PL and can never be trusted when it comes to these things. Every ‘perk’ always comes with a meteorite sized asterisk e.g. - ‘With your season ticket you get a discount on drinks and food!’ *Invalid 30 mins before kick off. (Ok they eventually changed this but still). - ‘Renew your season ticket early and receive a £35 voucher for the Saints store!’ *Only valid on last seasons discontinued items until they are sold out.

saintrich Posted 1 October, 2020 Share Posted 1 October, 2020 I emailed the ticket office as I hadn't received a voucher and they promptly sent me one. They also posted a link to a page on the store that had discounts for season ticket holders as an extra bonus, but the £35 voucher isn't exclusive to everything on that page. I bought a pair of tracksuit bottoms which were on the new arrivals bit. HOWEVER, I did get an official club email a few hours later saying I used my voucher too late and here's a different one - which then didn't work 😂 But my original transaction which did seem to work, despite the 2nd email saying it didn't, is showing on my pending transactions (£1.50 postage) and is in my order history, so who knows.
