Paulo Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Has anyone used this online service? I tried to purchase a 5 game package for my dad before Christmas, but it didn't work. I tried to purchase Kille/St J 'fan cards' and it still doesn't seem to be working. Tried 2 different browsers, but it just seems like a broken ordering system. You get to the 'add membership' page ok, then the next page gives you no memberships to purchase. I will phone the office to order again.

Topped it up with a ticket for the County game and again it worked fine. I even got in on Saturday without hassle (though I did bring my printed-out receipt just in case!).

Norgethistle Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I notice out of 4178 seats in sections JH1 - JH6 there are only 1128 seats available, have we sold 3050 Season tickets?? Available % Avail Total JH1 204 73 % 279 JH2 467 55 % 849 JH3 154 18 % 856 JH4 98 12 % 817 JH5 51 9 % 567 JH6 154 19 % 811 Total 1128 27 % 4178 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Yeah it looked kinda busy at that page. I would be more than surprised if we had sold so many tickets online + season tickets. Finally got it to work. Had to re-register and register other members of my household in order to buy them tickets, then purchase their fan cards in a different transaction. More postage costs, but whatever.

Lambies Lost Doo Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 It sounds like a good setup though ignoring some user teething issues. Please contact the club so they can iron this out for future users. Cuts down on queues to purchase tickets. Cuts down on money handling at the game. Allows you to go straight to gate. Gives the club details of members on a database. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillresigned Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Just a query I had was why there's no tickets for away games on salw pnline it would certainly save time if they were? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Just a query I had was why there's no tickets for away games on salw pnline it would certainly save time if they were? I'd imagine this would be down to unknown allocations, availability of official tickets to send out etc. Improved communication between clubs could possibly sort this out but it would involve all clubs. I like the idea of the online system, and the idea of the fan card. Much easier than having to rely on tickets being delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think fans can use the 5 and 2 game cards in the North Stand so there may not actually be that many in the JHS. Good to see the club doing something progressive. Hopefully more to follow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully more to follow I think we sold ST's for JH7 as well, but they may have a back up in the JH1-JH6 section I checked this a week ago and the figures were around the same, BUT what I did notice, the row where my Dad's ST is and he sits, and my ST was till summer is full, even though he told me my seat has never been sat in this season (Except when I come back), I'm hoping the seats shown as "Booked" are actually taken and there is no "Historical" data left in season for lapsed ST holders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I've only been in the JHS for one league game this season, the Celtic game funnily enough. I would assume my JHS seat would be listed as taken, as I specified a seat there when I bought my ticket. The seat is in the section right next to were the mhanky mob were situated.

Norgethistle Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 If we have 3050 sold already for these games this is great (Even if a 1/3rd are concessions) decent travelling support from Killie and a few hundred pay at the gate and we could be looking at nearly 5000 (or more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinny Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Great that this system is up and running, though there will undoubtedly be some teething problems, it will do something to make us look more professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Even if we have 3050 season ticket holders there's probably a sizeable number of those which are under 16s and therefore given away and not sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partick monkey Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I've been trying to buy the fancard for the Killie/St Johnstone games but it's no letting me have a seat in the North Stand... Computer says no...Say's 'Block Full'! HOW? I am very highly strung when it comes to things of this nature so does anyone know an alternative method to purchasing these tickets afore I launch my face though the monitor of my shitey laptop...?

Ta. The advice from Norgethistle is correct. You can't buy a seat in the North stand but if you wish to go there, your fan card for a JHS seat is good for the North stand at all fixtures except Sellick.

Norgethistle Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Seats taken will include U16s. Still alot as I believe we were told earlier in the season that we had sold under 2000 ST's INCLUDING kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't this cause problems if everyone who wanted to stand/sit in the North Stand had to buy a seat for the JHS? Wouldn't it give a false impression that there are less availible seats in the JHS for those who actually want to sit in the JHS? I don't get it... Thanks anyway pals...

H Wragg Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 STOP PRESS - The press has stopped. I can exclusively reveal that the machine used for printing the fan cards is broken with quite a few cards bought since Monday not prepared. What I can't exclusively reveal is when it will be fixed. If you are collecting one before Saturday I'd phone Firhill first to avoid a wasted journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't great news for those who may have bought them yesterday and are relying on them arriving via post before Saturday either! Doh!
