Dagger Is Back Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 5 hours ago, true-jambo said: I must have been near you in the queue, as I was there from 7.15 and left around 3 hours later. I was getting 17 tickets and we wanted near the halfway line and about halfway up, and in 2 rows, one above the other, not all 17 in a line. We got C4 rows p & s I am lucky enough to be retired so 3 hours out of my life is neither here nor there, better getting the seats we wanted. Don't think that makes me either dedicated or stupid, I doubt we would have been able to get exactly what we wanted any other way. That's exactly how I see it. We got 3 rows XX, VV, WW in C4 which suits us just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGJ Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 2 hours ago, Francis Albert said: Sorry I am not as au fait with ticketing arrangements as you (despite decades of experience) but as I have posted I think the use of a simple "Sold out" label (where appropriate) would have made things clearer than a "Not Available " indicator which did not distinguish between sections sold out, seats not available for sale (most of the South Stand) and seats allocated to Celtic. Sorry FA but in this case you should know by now as should others If you don't know the difference between Not Available and sold out then there's not a lot I can say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if it got ‘lost in post’ or nicked in post then there is no reprint option so u would lose it altogether, it’s a bit shite but I can understand it.

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.
