WubbleUC 0 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 The box office call centre is actually in Nottingham Where did you get that from like, Tom? Whenever I've rang up recently I've got through tosome of the same people I've spoken to for years and they were definitely based at SJP. They can't all have moved to Nottingham! They clearly aren't selling over the phone like, been trying to get a couple for my neighbour since they went on sale and have only actually made it through to the proper Ticket Office phone queue twice before being cut off. All the rest of the time it's been the queue to nowhere that takes you from 10th to 1st in 12 seconds. Cunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13883 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I rang up about my Fiorentina ticket which they had bother exchanging because it was a free one I got from a mate who works at the Academy, they said they couldn't directly exchange it because of where they were based - don't know why - and they told me just to take it in.

It's actually disgusting, the longer it goes the less chance I have of getting the seat near us too. If they're not selling over the phone just fucking say.

McFaul 35 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Right I've just spoken to some bloke called John Hunter did a bit of digging went through to the media centre and who gave me his extension. He runs the T/O top bod with Simon Esland. Apparently there's 15 staff at the ticket office who normally take calls but they've said fuck that, too many people queuing so all of them are dealing with face to face customers downstairs. There's a call centre in Nottingham, who are taking calls, but only 4 staff in there, he said when its full it cuts you off. FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26540 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Typical of the club to announce a cracking deal like this then make no plans at all to deal with the actual people buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Simon Eastland just been on Legends explaining the deal . Again, I applaud the gesture and good to actually hear from the club directly on matters . Need more of that kind of thing * (basic, open communication) and hope it continues in that vein as can only be a good thing for all concerned . * Obviously they need t keep Dekka in his little coffin with the lid screwed shut when it comes to anything to do with PR though .

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Eastland also (revealed ?) there's "30,000" season ticket holders currently and "all the remainder up for grabs" so that 14 strong sales team had best be prepared ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo 0 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 (edited) Ok - tried to get this info today but phone line was none existant. Do the season ticket holders have to buy them? Or is it good enough to just get their details and others can buy them? Would have been nice if they'd allowed those of us who have attended the matches this season (supported the team thus far) to get in on the deal.

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Eastland? is that not the same useless fecker that spouted the crap about the L7 lads and sorting everything out etc etc The very same . Not saying he was particularly 'polished' but at the same time it was refreshing not to be lied to . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 No one can convince me Simpson isn't saying "he's a wankohh" there. Watch it ten times. Hilarious, simply hilarious when you know the history of that Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I can't get my head round the fact I've just bought another season ticket for £166. Feels like I've robbed the club. Thinking about it right - against Sunderland, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City, the cheapest ticket will be AT LEAST £44. If ye went to five of them games you're looking at more than the cost of a season ticket on this deal. There's nee catch or fuck all, the disappointing thing for me is the bar will be harder to get served at, but I can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
