Season Ticket Trouble

[sheepcrooky]

I got my one yesterday, my loon has not. A bit of a shambles really. However, come hell or high water, we will be there.

According to e-mails the club sent out on Friday night "a small number" of ST holders were affected.

I arrived at the RDS around 11:30 on Saturday to find a queue of 20+ people and a polling station type arrangement in place with half a dozen staff members and boxes full of envelopes - I'd estimate at least 1,000. And that's a couple of hours after opening time.

They were offering complimentary pie and drink vouchers for the inconvenience, but they weren't available: "they should be here soon if you'd like to wait". I left without bothering with them.

It's obviously all a bit last minute, as some of the transaction receipts I saw had printout times of 07:40 on Saturday morning.

I'm really not sure why the ticketing process is so hard for them to manage effectively. Season tickets could have been printed and encoded months ago in some cases. Why leave it until the day before the first game of the season?

I take it that if you haven't moved your season ticket seat, then you use last season's card?

I tried to call the ticket office this morning for confirmtion of that, but the automated telephone system is fecked.

I didn't move my seat but was still required to collect a new card.

From listening to some of the chatter, it seems only those who have not signed up for AberDNA have been affected.
