Pre-season friendly thread

Put the ticket up a quid and don't charge me 50p that makes my head implode. £6 admin fee on season tickets has the same effect. Put them up a tenner so I don't know.
 
So the ticket info has gone up for the Celta Vigo home game.

As for removing your mask once in your seat, it doesn’t look like it, though I doubt everyone will comply and they won't be able to stop it.

  • Wear a face covering on entry to, exit from and in all areas inside the stadium, including seats. Face coverings may be removed temporarily while eating/drinking. This is especially important in enclosed areas such as concourses and toilets.
I swear there was details of having to provide a negative lateral flow test result or prove your vaccinated, but it looks like that paragraph has been deleted?

Yeah they did a C&P of the Man Utd rules then changed it
 
Fucking hell.

What are they charging people for? The automated email!?
Whatever system we use no doubt comes with a fee to the club and we have to pay that. No clue why we are open about it to be honest, as mentioned just sell the ticket at whatever the total cost is. We don't need to see the breakdown and it removes 1 thing we can moan about.

Oh come on mate, 50p per transaction!? £6 for a season ticket? If that's a genuine cost, then Wolves have got much bigger things to worry about.

I have no clue how much each transaction costs them but there is a charge, whether we pay it all and Wolves (and every other company selling tickets) add on their own % I have zero clue. I'm not defending it, it pisses me off everytime I buy something and admin/processing fees are added.
Would be better for everyone if we never saw that fee. Just hide it away in the total cost.

Fees are better now mind. A few years back (Morgan era) I went to book 7 tickets for the Museum and the club wanted £3 fee per ticket! Now that is properly being robbing fuckwits
 
I understand what you are saying regarding transparancy, i'm not sure i know of other vendors that charge the way Wolves do, and surely it's binary, a 600 quid season ticket surely isn't 12x more expensive to "transact" than a 20 quid ticket? Especially as the latter is emailed and printed by the fan, it's really taking the piss.

All fees take the piss.
We are no different to any other club/venue really.
Feel for the fans of clubs that use Ticketmaster to process (Watford did, not sure if they still do) as they are the Kings of added fees.

If we are using a 3rd party for ticket processing (that could be simply software or full access given to that company) I would presume they charge higher amounts for, well, higher amounts so £6 for £500+ versus (a pointless) 50p for upto £16 would make sense but I have no clue and doubt Wolves will freely offer up more info.
 
I think you are both correct. It comes again to football fans being a captive audience and football clubs milking that

Does it? As people have said it wouldn't bother people if they didn't know about it, if the club wanted to 'milk it' surely that would be the more sensible route, by the way it's a £1 on Ticketmaster so they are hardly subjugating the little man

agreed. gig tickets are the same. remember baulking at one gig (nine inch nails I think?) because tickets were around £35. However, there were 3 different sets of fees, making the eventual ticket cost over £51.

think this is one case where the transparency grates.
 
Ticketmaster do Edgbaston tickets. If you transact with them and opt to receive print at home tickets (issued nearer to the event date) and the match is cancelled, they don't refund the £2 per ticket fee. Despite doing absolutely nothing other than having your money for the [often four plus months] period before the game.
U16's were recently excluded from the pilot crowd at the test. I had bought 6 x adult tickets and 6 x U16 tickets for the game. They had my £650+ for six months and because the U16 tickets were refunded (and the adult ones too as that was an option) they kept £24 of my money.
Lords on the other hand refunded every penny and gave me a priority window access for future tickets.

How much is it extra in a bar or restaurant, at a petrol station or at supermarket when you use a card rather than cash?

Many businesses used to add a surcharge when you paid by credit card but a law was introduced to stop the practice if I remember correctly.
 
I seem to remember that credit card surcharges were outlawed for physical retailers some time last century. It looks as though they were outlawed for online sales in either 2017 or 2018.
 
Anyway more to the subject of the thread, should we expect Neves to make an appearance tomorrow? Will GlasgowWolf be giving ball bu ball commentary on this thread?

Seriously, I'm hoping that tomorrow's teams will give us a little more insight as to what we can expect in the coming season.
