Jambomuzz Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Probably been covered a million times but when are they planning on sending out the tickets? Bought mine on Friday and with it being special delivery thought I would have had something by now! Appreciate it was a bank holiday Monday though.

Sexton Hardcastle Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Assume this new no traffic in the centre of town would scupper any open top bus from the chambers? Also note it’s the Edinburgh marathon on the Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo010 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Long shot I know, but does anyone have 2 reference numbers available I could use. I already have 2 tickets in B3 for me and my son, however now that seats have become available in P2 I would much prefer seats there as it would be a better view for him. I would then offload my tickets to anyone else on here who needs them. Or alternatively anyone willing to swap, and I would pay the difference. ?⚽ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambo_ Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 On 27/04/2019 at 22:47, been here before said: Im not quite sure why you're whinging your wee bollocks off here. Over a week before the tickets went on sale Hearts provided the following information... "Please note that all posted tickets must go by Special Delivery. There willl be no re-print option for lost or damaged tickets hence why the club will only post tickets via Special Delivery, which enables them to be tracked". The highlighted bit is theirs. It was there for all to see and was repeated numerous times right up to and including when the sale started. Its still there now. You chose to buy the tickets with those conditions attached. If you didnt read it then thats your own fault. If you did read it but bought them anyway then tough. If you're not happy about it leave the tickets or make alternative arrangements to get them or watch the game on the telly. Thats what your choice is. fair point but £7...... £7 fecking quid.... am i tight old fecker!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplesimon Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Has anyone received their ticket via the post yet? I don't live in Edinburgh, so getting to the ticket office is very difficult hence I chose the postal option and am now away from home until the day of the final, so it is going to be a panic getting hold of my ticket from the sorting office on the morning of the game. How hard was it for them to send out the tickets before now, I bought them weeks ago? Getting really unimpressed with all these repeated customer service issues.

How hard was it for them to send out the tickets before now, I bought them weeks ago? Getting really unimpressed with all these repeated customer service issues. Apparently they were sent out on Friday by the next day guaranteed delivery "Special Delivery" service at £7 a throw, paid for by us though apparently mainly so the club can avoid reprinting any lost or damaged tickets (of which if sent by normal post there might be a few dozen or at most a few score?) If posted on Friday the guaranteed next day delivery didn't happen. Like you, if it does turn up in the next few days I will have to go to the nearest sorting office to pick it up. It seems to me the chances of it getting lost or damaged are increased by this toing and froing. Why in any event can't we print off the tickets ourselves, as we do for air and rail travel, theatres and cinemas and every ticketing operation that recognises we are two decades into the 21st Century. Instead we are forced to pay in aggregate several thousand pounds for delivery of a ticket which is taking longer (as I said on another thread) than the 18th century mail coach from from Edinburgh to London.

I am lucky in a sense - I had no choice to make because I live over 400 miles from the ticket office. But if I lived in say Broxburn, if I had been informed that "Special Delivery" meant some unspecified time in the next three weeks I might have weighed up differently the choice of going to Gorgie vs paying £7 for the convenience of Special Delivery. I am bleating on because of the refusal by some to accept that Hearts could have communicated better and performed better. But enough. For some the club can do wrong.

Bridge of Djoum Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) 6 minutes ago, graygo said: He did but don't expect him to admit to it. Yeah. If he doesn't admit it I struggle to see his point. If I were to send something SD, it'd get there the following day. If I requested something be sent SD, and the sender could, it'd be delivered the following day. Guaranteed Saturday delivery is also available at an extra cost, as is delivery any working day before 9am. If I ordered something for an event in the future, and didn't require it the next day/the tickets weren't issued yet, I would not expect next day delivery. I'd be paying for the guaranteed delivery, signature and I believe insurance up to a certain amount is included in the price in case of loss. The timing of delivery in this case is not critical as long as it's before the event. It seems FA is again trying to manufacture an issue where none exists.

It's main purpose is indeed next day delivery. However, in this instance where delivery of the item isn't a time factor, it's purpose essentially becomes guaranteed delivery, with a signature and insurance to a point if lost/damaged. You'll get your ticket, FA. stop being obtuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
