I assume they have to be based overseas because it is illegal or probably illegal for people to do but OK for companies to do.
Pretty pissed off, I booked my seats within 5 mins of the sales opening on phase 1, just checked what seats and row they allocated me and I've been given seats in the last row of block 112.
Yup they are both based in Spain - check the terms and conditions of sale and there's the registered address of the company. No doubt that is the loop hole - fair do's if they are getting it from the neutral FA areas, or through some commercial allocation, but how are they getting it in the CLUBS allocation?
I don't know but someone on here mentioned the bopx office told them they had hogged the online booking and were hoovering up tickets. I assume they pay membership fees which they more than make back by selling at triple the cost.
The only way to stop it is to stop buying them, even if it means missing the final.

Can anybody explain to me the reasoning behind not being able to book specific seats and only blocks???
It can't be memberships as it's only season tickets at mo unless they are selling on future 'guaranteed tickets'. Feeling really pissed off until I get mine on bag and it's still wrong either way!
Trickling in now:

As of 5.30pm this evening, we have sold 16,736 tickets for the Play-Off Final
How many members have we got?
If the members snap up two each on Friday & Saturday that'll leave about 600 for Sunday, doesn't look promising...
Members only get 1 each I think mate
One on Friday and another on Saturday if I've understood the terms correctly, two in total.
You are totally correct mate, I hadn't read it correctly.
That doesn't look good then for general sale

Should any tickets be remaining after 19th May, further on-sale details will be announced.
Season ticket holders AND members can get a further TWO during on-sale phase 4. Guess it means members can possibly buy up to 4 tickets before general sale. Am I correct?
