Lochend Brazil Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 As I have purchased my cat A seat at ?425 plus ?3.50 admin I was considering going up around lunch time on Saturday to look at what else is available, as I feel I aint getting value for money.

Guest Chester1874 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I was in today renewing my seat and I was told that you can phone the ticket office as well as going in over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Belker Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I was in today renewing my seat and I was told that you can phone the ticket office as well as going in over the weekend. I am thinking it would be easier to do this online (remember doing it before) if it was available! You would be able to see exactly where the seat is on a map, then book it. This does not seem to be an option this time! Or am I doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imeantasong Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I was in today renewing my seat and I was told that you can phone the ticket office as well as going in over the weekend. Change Over Weekend On Saturday and Sunday between 10am and 4pm there will be the opportunity for supporters to change over previously renewed seats. No Season Tickets will be on sale at this time. Supporters must visit the Ticket Centre at Tynecastle, where they will have two options: 1. Automatic change of specific seats - subject to availability 2. Open switch to new seats after viewing specific stadium areas with customer services staff Seats must have been renewed by Friday at 5pm to qualify for this opportunity. http://www.heartsfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/HeartsNewsDetail/0,,10289~1317655,00.html I was only quoting this from the Hearts website above.

WeeToonJambo Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 NO! You must go up to Tynie between 10am and 4pm Saturday or Sunday. See here: http://www.heartsfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/HeartsNewsDetail/0,,10289~1317655,00.html According to the letter that came with the renewal notice you can do it by contacting the ticket centre. It doesn't say you have to call at the ticket office. If that's the case my plans for today will be changed to include a train journey to Haymarket.

WeeToonJambo Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 A bit more information. I've just phoned the ticket office and got a pre-recorded message saying that I can change over the phone, but not until after 10.00am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makween Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I'm moving from Section G back to Section N, having only switched from N to G in the first place because my seat got knocked down. Will be going in a minute. Need a jobbie first. It'll be great. The jobbie I mean, not changing seats, although changing seats should be hopefully be quite good too.

WeeToonJambo Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I spent 1 hour 30 minutes and 45 seconds on the phone which I reckon would have cost me about the same as a day return on the train from Glasgow to Edinburgh but at least it's done now. Started off at position 21. I can safely say that I now know all about Hearts hospitality packages, the club shop and the naffest of naff background music. I have nothing against Scott Wilson but I hope not to hear his voice again until the season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you wonder why they put this on the website saying it's a change doesn't it? And on Thursday too (says 22 May but was 29 May, 1 day to go). Think I'll drive the 100 miles round trip and do a few other things on the way.as it's less frustrating than sitting on the phone. Probably not much dearer than the phone will be either.

dj-noisy Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Quite concerning for the clubs coffers since everyone seems to be downgrading Think there will be major offers on the go very soon to boost sales Yawn!! Speaking only for myself, we were moving to get away from the pillars. Not downgrading, not moving to another section so that Vlad can't get more money out of us. Something?s are not as black and white as they seam. As for major offers, i think that most of the fans who have paid for there season tickets already won't be to impressed if hearts come out with some sort of discount for new members, but we will find out on Tuesday when the tickets go on general sale. Also what i'm hearing is that hearts have sold just under 9500 season tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackaysCentreSpot Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 how are they giving you the difference if you downgrade They are giving you the difference in cash if you go in person to the TO obviously. Bit hard trying to stuff cash down the phone. I waited just under 1 hour from start to finish. I went in to upgrade 3 Cat B ST to Full ST. Got the seats that we wanted for them beside us and it was a very smooth and painless transaction. And Prancer this means that some people were actually upgrading.

Do The Dance Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I downgraded from Platinum Section E, over to Section Q in the main stand. Queued for about an hour and a half, and got to go view my new seats too, and walk around part of the trackside - which was nice. How sad..

Imeantasong Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I went to the TO about 2pm and it took all of 5 minutes max before I was out. Moved within same band in the Gorgie Stand so no further transaction required, but there were 2 staff dealing and 2 people in front of me. Must have quietened down after a frantic start.
