Soul Crew Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere but Wolves published there season ticket prices for next season and with a guarenteed 18 meetings they are only charging £250 working out to approx just over £13 a meeting, fair play to a promotion for thinking about fans pockets, although still baffles me why a speedway season ticket is non transferable (i.e. If I am out of the country I cannot give my season ticket to a mate for that meeting) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I guess the reality is that it'd most likely be passed to an existing fan and therefore lead to a loss of income for the promotion.

The "non-transferable" clause is basically designed to prevent it being used twice (or more) at the same match. Is there a photo of you on the ticket - do you have to give a finger print on entry? Of course not. I wouldn't worry. Edited November 28, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then if you cannot pass the season ticket on - you have legally paid for an admission - and cannot attend. Provided due notice is given of a non-attendance, provided the season ticket is held by the club's admin for the match you will miss, I see no reason why you should not get a pro-rata refund.

Yeah, cos if you buy a packet of 6 tomatoes and don't eat one, you can always take rotting fruit back to Tesco afterwards and say "I bought this but didn't need it, give me some money back" 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reliant Robin Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Swindon's have been transferrable for several seasons now - I think they take the view that it has been paid for so it doesn't matter if it is passed on to an existing fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, cos if you buy a packet of 6 tomatoes and don't eat one, you can always take rotting fruit back to Tesco afterwards and say "I bought this but didn't need it, give me some money back" If you had followed the comments fully you would have seen the comment was made before further Posts highlighted the possibility of season tickets carrying photos. And let's face it - the tomato comment needs to be squashed!!! I was making a suggestion on how a season ticket MIGHT POSSIBLY be made if prior notice was given to the track not, as you appear to conjecture after the meeting had taken place. Swindon's have been transferrable for several seasons now - I think they take the view that it has been paid for so it doesn't matter if it is passed on to an existing fan That's exactly what I put forward. Well done Swindon. And duck! Some old tomatoes might be flying this way soon! Edited November 28, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the same as if you've a prior knowledge that you might only eat 5 tomatoes in a week, don't buy the discounted 6 pack and whinge when you have one left over. You can't buy a discounted season ticket for 18 meetings, turn up for 5, and then claim your money back for the other 13. That defeats the whole object of discounted bulk buying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I suggest you let Swindon have the benefit of your expertise in regard to partial refunds on season tickets? Also, where best to plant tomatoes at Bunsdon?

Reliant Robin Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) To clarify, I don't think a partial refund could ever enter the equation! But they have quite openly promoted that you can give your season ticket to a friend or relative if for any reason you are unable to make a meeting, same as you could feed your mate a spare tomato if he's sat on the sofa doing nothing Edited November 28, 2013 by Reliant Robin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though you break forum rules by pratting about with gigantic fonts, underlines and unnecessary colour changes, you still don't seem able to read properly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though you break forum rules by pratting about with gigantic fonts, underlines and unnecessary colour changes, you still don't seem able to read properly. Thank you for the information on font use, underlines, and colour changes. I will desist in future. But I wonder why the BSF provides these facilities to use? Nobody has said Swindon gave partial refunds - but they allow another person to use a season ticket and if you read back to the beginning you will see that is the thrust of this thread. A BSF member just wanted to let another person use his season ticket while he was away. I think my professional qualifications prove I can read properly. But I won't go into that - it's irrelevant to this forum item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 A few clubs (not all) have announced their season ticket prices, with varying 'deals' - some good, some not so - on the usual admission price!! The Wolves offer does seem very good though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Ace Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Ours is £298 But if you buy it now-end of December it's £272 There is a deal to that if you but 2 adult season tickets a kid under 12 gets a free season ticket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
