Date confusion re ticket sale for Semi-final v Crows

[AnnieH]

My friends (who are on their own this year)....

"Oh darl?32 mins later.
What a nightmare?.ended up Category 3 tix?..in front of Victor Trumper. Row P.
Not happy. It was so hard trying to pick the Cat 1 and get 4 tix using 2 barcodes.
Hate Ticketek. Looking at map to the right of the goalposts."

Once again, treating the members like pieces of @@@@.
They are GA seats on any other day.

Agree, happened to me twice - ticket allocated but Ticketek site crashed at the payment page. Fortunately I got through with a third ticket and in a good spot.

Same story here. Third time lucky and landed two seats upstairs in the Noble which is just where I like it.

I've often thought footy clubs should start calling members season ticket holders instead. The word membership invokes the notions of ownership, exclusive access and entitlement that a footy club can never deliver the way say a private golf club does. What does membership of the Sydney Swans amount to this morning? It amounts to
the opportunity to spend an hour being driven half crazy by a computer just so you can pay too much for seats in parts of the ground where you don't want to sit.

What a shocker. Managed to get 8 tickets in bay 28 row L. Not perfect but at least a little elevation.

Took me about four attempts to buy tickets for my non-Redback member friends. First time it claimed that the barcode wasn't valid (allocation exhausted, even though it hadn't been used to buy any tickets at that point). Second time it told me my time allocation was up when I reached the payment page, even though it wasn't. next time it told me the seats it was trying to sell me weren't available anymore. Finally it worked, and I managed to get two seats in Brewongle 2, fortunately in the same section that the Redback tickets are. Stressful process but ultimately OK.

Well done.
Winner winner chicken dinner.

A shamozzle is correct.

Unfortunately I needed six tickets together and so got the back of level 4 in the victor trumper stand. At least I'll be there

While attempting to conceal from your employer what it is that you are doing.

WTFF??
They're charging $7 to print out your own tickets?

"I know. But??its frustrating.
And they charge $7 to print out the tickets."

They charge you for any type of ticket delivery.
Email, text, post even to collectat the ground.
Last time I used them it was cheaper to have the tix posted to me than emailed.
I believe tix (at least for H&A games) are more expensive if you buy over the phone rather than online -they were anyway.
They'll get you anyway they can

Dirty, filthy, money grabbing zealots.

[Swansongster]

All part of the collusionary, money-grabbing conspiracy that is AFL House. I bet the AFL and Fitzpatrick have holdings in Ticketek.

How else could they get away with offering such shoddy service and not investing in technology systems, processes and people that work for optimised customer satisfaction.

They just don't give a #%*t. Maximise revenues. Minimise costs.

General sale just started at 3pm. Thought I'd jump on and see what I would get as a regular joe.

Categories 2, 3 and 4 exhausted, single seats only in Category 1. There is going to be a lot of disappointed fans....

EDIT: Disregard, you have to enter a passcode 'SWANS' or 'CROWS", then all seats are available... I'll let myself out....

[barry]

How many seats are available after SCG and ANZ members ?. 25,000?

[aguy]

I am offered better seats than I got with the swans Presale. Ticketek is terrible
