Man City Ticket binfest/availability

[tronnogull]

I called the club about this yesterday afternoon. A very pleasant lady put me on hold for a few minutes while she asked around the office about this. The response was that, yes it was a problem and the system currently couldn't give access for sth to buy tickets for qualified f&f. They would put it on a list of items to be raised up the line. So I wouldn't imagine that there will be a quick fix.....

We shall see. Last season I was told over the phone that the restriction was purposely introduced because some fans were getting 'confused' that they couldn't buy tickets for themselves !

The good news for Bronze members with zero points and Young Seagulls is that tickets are now on sale to you and there's loads available

 

[HHGull]

Up and running now for Bronze members with less than 20 points. Seems to be plenty left if you're quick.

couple of thousand still left - maybe £45 is too much ?

I must admit I have a ticket in my basket for my 7-y-o but I'm thinking "£28? Really?"

Go on - you'll be the best dad ever!

I'll be the best Dad ever if I buy him a big bag of sweets and let him play on the iPad for the 90 minutes. Which is why I'm hesitating!

I'm gonna given them a ring but i've got bronze membership but it's not letting me buy

any clues as to what I'm doing wrong before I bother them?

Don't do it. Send a message. £28 for a child is too much.

The children are our future (never forget).

Are you actually logged in as the bronze member? I can't buy for my son when logged in as me (STH) but can if logged in as him (YS+).

You probably already know this but , there is a assign box { family and friends } to tick for tickets , i selected two tickets then assigned the other and was able to do this without the other person logging on .

You can't get to that point if you don't have the right to buy yourself. So, as a STH I can not buy a ticket for Manchester City so I do not have the 'Buy' button so can't get to the bit where I could choose a seat and assign it to my son. (This annoying change in functionality has been discussed further up this thread)

Ah Ha , i see i'm not a ST holder just a Bronze member , which by the way i was quite sceptical of purchasing just to theoretically jump the queue ,but actually it's turned out to be a good purchase as no way was i expecting to be able to sit pretty much where i wanted to .

An update on STH's switching seats in my case so I can sit with grandson. Was told to phone today as on Tuesday the system would not allow. Phoned this morning after 20 mins got through to be told system still could not do the switch as it is upgrading all the STH details. That should have finished last night but could now be another couple of days. Advised to phone Monday.

So don't waste your money (7ppm call charge) if you are looking to do same.

When did you buy the bronze membership ? It maybe that there is a block for 14 days after you bought it. Otherwise, it's what [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] said.

I have had some success with this even though the system is still locked. The agent was able to reserve the target seats for me, so that they can't be bought by anybody else, and I'm to phone back on Monday to complete the actual purchase.

Have done the same. My friendly telephone line helper told me that they would be in touch when the system was ready to complete the transfer.

Let's hope so.

The level of demand at various price points for PL tickets is currently being tested and you can bet that Barber will be watching like a hawk. Excess demand would mean only one thing for our ST and seat prices next season...

Since I first looked on Tuesday morning till now the ticket numbers sold does not seem to be very many at all , we all know it will be a sell out but wonder if the club are surprised at slow they are to shift at present ?
