The (Sir) Alwaysright Gordon Road Stand Thread

If I wasn't hurting from being fleeced by a Dozy Dick - I would have the energy to hate you

scroll down and click on 'away' tickets -- it is a Cat B game

looks like btb is right - GFC have broken the law - they clearly have shown a different ( 50p) price for tickets than shown on the Walsall O/S - without stating why.

edit - I also hate Dozy Dick

 

Now you're just taking the piss

 

careful - you'll split your colostomy bag

 

I did tell yer they was breaking the law mate

If you add a booking fee at the office, they need to advise you...it's a simple few seconds conversation. They cannot just assume you have looked online.

 

brb --- sshh - grumpygit has been charged the booking fee - he doesn't remember - #Alzheimers

 

But I've got to be honest...I've NEVER paid a booking fee at the actual ticket office!

 

ah explains it now - gotcha mate

 

****...i must Alzheimers to

 

Now I think they're making it up as they go ---- or they've heard that brb has rumbled the 'booking fee' scam ------ the Blackpool ticket prices are the same on both teams' Official sites -- and no hint of a booking fee ---I think they realised that it confused Dozy Dick

While i was looking, i saw the Oldham tickets advertised, so it appears you pay 50p....yesterday grumpygit mentioned they were £1.00 online, for the Oldham game they are showing as 75p confused.com

 

I think this needs clarifying, the O/S shows a booking fee of £1... (50p if your a season ticket holder) for bookings made by phone , there is no mention of a booking fee for online sales or buying in person from the ticket office, any attempt to extort additional fees not advertised is illegal.

 

If i remember correctly grumpgit, our mate alwaysright has already been extorted

 

grumpygit - you are mistaken ! I've just checked ( online ticketing ) - and there is a 75 pence transaction / booking fee........ the £1 and 50 p 'fees' do indeed relate to telephone bookings.................. it's all a con !

 

but...but...but....but....but....

What about at the office in person?

 

thanks brb - I'm glad to see your Alzheimers' getting better......... Hereford ?

 

OK - brb ( et al ) - I got shafted - and by a Dozy Dick ---- there - I'm an idiot - satisfied ? - now if you continue to extract urine be prepared for when I 'follow through'

 

"Your COMPLETE guide to buying GFC match tickets online"

That is the way the club describe the guide, nowhere in the guide mentions a fee for buying online, hidden charges that appear only when making the purchase are a fraudulent attempt to conceal the true cost.

Surely any fees should already be built in to the face value of a ticket, why do we even have online booking fees, surely it is cheaper for the seller if we purchase online than it is to pay someone wages to serve us in person.

But let's appease the online tickets and say it is to cover postage...so how come i pay the booking fee for every ticket i purchase but they stick them all in the same envelope for delivery!

Booking fees in general are a rip off and clubs don't like it if we misuse our ticket and we don't like add on charges.

I guess all this booking fee moaning suggests the club is playing well at the moment

 

There is one area where I break the rules every match I attend, I always have a phone in my pocket.
