Lets not forget that important 50p admin fee on print at home tickets....

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?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.
Yeah they did a C&P of the Man Utd rules then changed itI 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?
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.Fucking hell.
What are they charging people for? The automated email!?

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.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.
All fees take the piss.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.
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 manI think you are both correct. It comes again to football fans being a captive audience and football clubs milking that
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.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.
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?Does it?

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.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?
So why are football clubs/ticketmaster etc allowed to continue with them?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.
Don't they charge a processing fee rather than a credit card or PayPal payment surcharge?So why are football clubs/ticketmaster etc allowed to continue with them?
