Any fans on this board putting tickets on the exchange for the West Ham game.
Just wondering if it works for you.

[Albion] Ticket exchange for WHU
- Thread starter The Birdman
- Start date
Do you mean does the link on the ticketing site work?
It does for me - https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/resaleWHU1718
But there's been a series of people on here over the course of the season for whom it either doesn't work at all, or it doesn't work on certain devices. Kind of sums up the Albion's approach to having a ticket exchange worthy of the name.

Certainly not Premire League ready is it . Disappointing considering how much right the club got , something they really need to sort out and advertise correctly to get rid of the empties .

Exactly. And then impose draconian sanctions on those who find their own, workable solution
I get the impression they just find fans an inconvenience.
They don’t make it easy for people with tickets who can’t go to make sure their seat isn’t empty and then ban them when they do!
Are they still banking another £50 for each ticket they’ve already sold without giving the original ticket holder anything worthwhile as a refund for letting them do so?
Who pays £50 for a ticket? Most using the exchange are probably season ticket holders and I'm not sure they pay that much. In addition, the club don't 'bank' "£50" as that price includes VAT so they are effectively down to £41.50.
That said I agree with the sentiment that they don't give anything making it worthwhile giving a refund.
The people purchasing the tickets put back on sale by the club having been given up by season ticket holders via the ticket “exchange”.
Are you even able to use the exchange for a ticket just bought for a specific match? I thought it was only season ticket holders who could use it to release their ticket for resale.
Top tickets are £55, I believe (though probably not for the WHU match).
That’s a reasonable point, but the actual numbers aren’t the point.
This bit is the main point. There is no incentive to use it in the first place, apart from wanting your seat used and not wanting to be banned for giving it to someone else for at least part of your money back.

It’s now being run (effectively) as a business, it’s no longer a local community club and their behaviour on tickets illustrates that they have lurched too far

A friend of mine is trying to get a ticket for WHU and it's obviously sold out online , how do you even access the exchange or do you just click on the normal tickets site and they would be listed there ?
Yes, tell your friend to keep checking the normal ticket site. As and when tickets are put in the exchange they will appear on the ticket site soon after, or should do anyway.

I have got two spare tickets for the WHU game.
If anyone is looking for tickets then please PM me.
We might be able to do something where I let you know when I am going to put them on the Official Club Ticket Exchange and then you nip on there and snap them up...

Sniping on the Ticket Exchange! I like your thinking there.
Is it still the case that the voucher the club gives you for putting a ticket on the Exchange can't be used on a matchday? If it is, does anybody know the "thinking" behind that crazy, seemingly totally illogical, rule?

It's a myth - the voucher can be used on a matchday - I used one before Chelsea.
I’ve used all mine on match days.

As a brighton fan if a cant go I would always want another Brighton fan to have my seat anything I get for it is a bonus I hate seeing empty seats but I understand that many season ticket holders can't always make games for various reasons.
Many fans upgrade tickets to bring a friend when the children can't come.
I also think the system should try and help our fans that don't live in Sussex or Burwash in Kent, as the changes due to sky games can cause them bigger problems getting to Sussex and we don't want to lose these fans as they are building our fan base.
