I think I've LOST my ticket...

[Easy 10]

A mate of mine got my ticket for the FA Cup game, gave it to me at the Tranmere match, and I think I've gone and LOST it. Could've sworn it was in my jacket pocket, but now its GONE. I'll have a hunt round the car tomorrow morning when its light, perhaps it fallen out in there. But if I can't find it, will the club shop give me ANOTHER one ? Or will they just dismiss me as a ne're do good ticket tout just trying to screw an extra ticket out of them to sell on ?



If I can't find it, I'm loathe to lash out another £15, as paying out £30 to see us against another pub team is a mite excessive at this time of year.

If some other herbert has NICKED it, or finds it and goes to the game taking my seat, can I ask that someone on here please twat them round the back of the head or throw some chips at them.

Ta.

You keep losing your tickets then!

 

[Theatre of Trees]

Surely, if he has brought them he used your name when purchasing and the club will have a record on its database regarding it. Ring them up.

 

[Easy 10]

Yes. I'll do that I think.

if its your first offence they charge you again but will give you a refund if the other ticket turns up. Well they do if you turn up to a game and you have lost your ticket on way to game and you are a sth

Errrr...so whats the point of contacting the club if they're only going to charge me again anyway ?

you get a ticket to the goal fest

Yeah this is an absolute gem of a rule. I couldn't help but laugh when they told me on the phone. Anyway, I presume the way I was told it was a mistake, but it's worth a go if you get the same plank that I got. Basically, they told me that they would issue me with a new ticket FREE OF CHARGE, however if I were to find my original ticket they would CHARGE ME £20

and you didnt admit you found your ticket

scum

 

[Easy 10]

I want a FREE replacement ticket.
Why should I suffer for my own incompentence ?

 

[Gritt23]

I knew you should have got me to look after your ticket for you.

 

[Easy 10]

Hmmm...one word. And you know what it is.






BARNET.

That really was the most amazing "lost my ticket" display imaginable.

However, I did have a similar everything-out-of-all-pockets moment when I got home Saturday, looking for my Cup ticket. In fact I do have that quite a lot.

I lost my season ticket once and they only charged me £20 for a new one! but the very kind lady at the ticket office let me off! i recently found it when clearing out my room in a jeans pocket which was going to a chairty shop

On one occassion when I said that I had left home without my season ticket they charged me £20 and refunded the money when I sent the original ticket back in. On another occassion my brother wasnt able to go but didnt have time to send me his ticket for my son so I just told them that he had forgotten to pick it up, as I knew his seat would be empty, they just gave my son another duplicate ticket.

Despite what many say on here about the ticket office and shop staff I have always found them to be very helpful if you are polite with them. I did fall foul of them once when (2nd occassion above) there were so many people collecting tickets that I missed the first 10 mins of the game and started ranting, but in general they are very good.
