[Albion] Ticket Exchange Problem

Green Cross Code Man · Jan 17, 2022

Hi, I am unable to go to the match tomorrow and have 2 tickets. I haven't ever used the exchange so tried listing them. All seems straightforward, but when I get to the part when I enter my bank details and click 'OK' it says there's a problem. I would be very grateful if anyone has insight on this please.

Are you not on the direct debit scheme ?

Is the exchange even open at present?

The game is not sold out so the exchange is not open

You haven't sold a sofa on Gumtree lately, have you?

I doubt it ! seemed a fair few areas not sold out yesterday
So a full sell out to activate the exchange unlikely imho
Considering sold seats so far this season

Yes I am.

I searched for it, found it and filled the form in. It allowed me to check the box for Chelsea.

See above.

It seems ridiculous if it is not open, that must be a bug and a pretty annoying on at that.

I only ask as I’ve just put mine on They already have my bank details due to the DD
I live in hope of it opening again one day :shrug:

It actually said only enter details if it's a new account. But I had tried already with no details as they have my account. When it didn't work I thought it was due to the lack of info for some reason and tried again. Annoying that it lets one get that far when it has no intention of allowing it.

Worse things happen at sea.

I put our two up for the exchange this morning, they’re in a great location on a aisle, half way up the NS.

I then ascertained that in reality, they weren’t listed for resale.

I do understand the economics for the club. But it seems almost criminal that a nice pair of seats will remain empty tomorrow night, when there are only sporadic single seats, forever unsold, in the NS elsewhere.

True. But would you like to write that info on pretty much all the threads on NSC?

The sad thing about the ST loaning facility being officially outlawed
Is empty seats This will translate into people thinking Oh it must be easy to get a ticket
Look at what’s for sale and Nah blow that I won’t bother When they see what’s actually on sale
Then get even more vexed seeing empty seats on TV in the areas they wanted to sit in or with friends
But what does the paying customer know?

Expect your 2 seats will be occupied within 5 mins of ko by a couple of mates who bought crappy single seats

I get that about the club and all. But it is a pretty silly website if it allows one to get to the final point and then rejects it.

There are about 600 tickets still on sale so I would waste to much effort trying to list you ticket for tomorrow as there is no chance the exchange will open.

Certainly not, however in this instance the Ticket Exchange has not yet been declared operational in this game so all else matters not a jot.

But that’s illegal

I’d already thought that the pissheads in our row, who see little of the game due to loo and bar visits, will shuffle up and occupy our :rant:

terroritory.

This is sad. One of my sons who is able to go, has asked how easy it would be to transfer my ticket to his friend. He was prepared to pay something for it. In previous years I would have just allowed him access and not charged a penny. I know that is 'wrong' but well that is another argument. I told my son to forget his mate, organising the joining of My Albion and then paying a further £20 is just not worthwhile as he may as well just buy a ticket independently.
