There's been too much "ticket fraud" going on, and it's been causing problems on matchday, with 2 people turning up for 1 seat for example. Not good news for The Fund, but we'll live with it.

He is working long hours at the moment and is not on RM just as much as normal but should see him on Sat at the game. Aubie92 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't think we'll be charged. I'm sure I discussed this with the ticket office and they told me we'd be okay, because our thing is pre-approved. I hope I'm not wrong. I''ll check. 1 hour ago, Aubie92 said: Surely the club would be willing to waive the fee for that? I'd contact the SLO and the club directly to explain. I'm pretty sure they will.

I've never had issues before, is this new or is it just her being a dick? I was going to pay for my Europa package but took the huff, I know they won't care but it made me feel better Sticking to my original idea, BT sports and a cargo. No problem if the rule is applied to everyone. I like your style mate and your honesty .Not sure about the new rule but I think they make it up as they go along in there nowadays LochendBilly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was 2/3 days before the Maribor game. that's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about getting a paper reprint for your season ticket seat prior to matchday. The reason they've done this is that you should only need a paper reprint if you've left home without your smartcard. If that's the case, then you should have no issue about waiting until matchday to get your reprint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one I quoted you on said "ticket fraud" . And because of the only being able to pick up your tickets on the day of the game, I assumed that it was fake tickets plus "2people turning up for 1 seat" To give the fraudsters less time to copy what the real tickets look like.
