hoozonside10 Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 Is there anyone higher than me?!? I am in block 528 (that's the uppermost section) row 44 - they must be issuing parachutes for that row!! I can feel the nosebleed coming on just thinking about it!! (No I am not moaning about having a ticket, and yes I am sure there is someone who would bite my hand off for it - just wondering how high the row numbers go) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurzel Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 The ticket office said that if duplicates have to be printed these will need to be collected at Wembley on the day as they can't print them at Saints. And then what happens if someone - perhaps someone who works for a carrier firm or the PO for example - happens to be sitting in the seats, with the original tickets?! K. Maybe that's why they've insisted on keeping that huge block of empty unsold seats - just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintwarwick Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 Still no tickets and have rang up the 0845 688 9391 number. They say all the tickets have been sent out but if you want a refund they can do that. If they don't arrive by Wednesday you'll have to ring the club up and pick them up at Wembley. I hope Nicola Cortese is aware of what a mess the ticket office have made of this and will take action to ensure they buck their idea up in future. How have they made a mess? Did I miss something and the final has already been played? They have already said the last batch were sent out on Friday and if you haven't received these by Wednesday then ring the number, It's only Monday ffs.

The money went out on 03/03/10 so we're now talking 19 days. It's rubbish service especially given the booking fee. And the problem now is that if they don't arrive on Wednesday they'll have to be picked up at Wembley which is a pain in the arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_John Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 Mine were ordered online at 7:25 am on the 1st day for ST (22 March) and they have just arrived in the post at One O'Clock. Does anybody know whether Row 9 is 9 rows from the front or 9 rows from the back of Block 125 ? I.e. is it the "upper part" at the back of the 1st Tier, or are these £44 tickets 9 rows from the front ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissyboy31 Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 They told me they'd all been sent out on Friday so someone is lieing.

Ken Tone Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 I have just rung the club about my missing 6 tickets to be told that tickets are still being sent out today. Mixed messages or what. Asked why last ordered tickets appear to be sent out first, they said they didn't know. That is what is so annoying. You're told still sending out today. I was told last ones went Thursday morning and Solent said they'd been told on Saturday that last ones went Friday, so all should have by Monday, or Tuesday at the latest. This is a simple matter of fact. Surely the ticket office staff can agree on when they sent the last tickets?! Some posters have been told they were sent out in alphabetical order, others in reverse ticket price order. The reality seems to be that there was no logical order! It feels like they're just saying the first thing that comes into their heads to get people off the line. Now that might have been understandable in the early part of last week when they were snowed under trying to get on with the posting, but I think people ringing now have very good reason to ring, if they've seen the post come today still with no tickets. In my case tickets ordered on first morning of ST-only first phase. I can't even remember how long ago that was. If they are not waiting for me on doormat this evening I'm not going to be happy. K.

He's on holiday from Monday til Friday so I now have to waste my lunch hour on Monday and probably Tuesday to walk from Whiteley to his house in Titchfield to see if they've arrived! What a pain in the arse!!! Just got back from my mate's and thankfully our tickets have now arrived; I can now relax. And I used his toilet and left the seat up so that should annoy his wife.

Enjoy! :-) Seriously, I know what you mean. I'm scared of heights and stuck in Row 17. I've tried to get someone/anyone with a lower or middle tier ticket to swap ... but no-one interested in doing so. It's a long way up.

bpsaint Posted 22 March, 2010 Share Posted 22 March, 2010 The ticket office could have saved a whole world of hassle if they'd started dispatching them earlier than March 15th,and via Recorded or Special Delivery. We already had to pay the 'wembley booking fee' of £3 per order,or per ticket as it was with telephone bookings,so i'd have happily paid a couple of quid to guarantee their delivery.

I have paid OVER £100, still haven't got my tickets and live 200 miles from the box office. Panic!!!!? No!! Will enquire on Wed as we have been advised. Better not mention that the M3 has roadworks at two spots between Soton and the M25 and the M25 is a real mess too. The trains are disrupted and the coaches, well sooner you than me!!!
