Neverforgetfiveone Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 This is the first season that I’ll be taking the wee fella with me. Unfortunately he cannot make the game against Ross County. How do I go about upgrading the ticket for an adult? I had a look on the main site but there was no instructions? Do people upgrade or do they just blag it?

Hearts are rampant Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Contact ticket office. They’ll deactivate the season ticket for that game and give you a paper ticket instead. When I have done it before you had to pay the difference between a child ticket and adult ticket (amount obviously varies if cat a or car b game). I’d assume that’s still the case. There was no admin charge. I’m sure they’d do it by email or phone (and post ticket) but much easier to go in and get paper ticket there and then.

Difference with those scumbags, is they seem quite willing to consciously, and wrongly, buy a concession and screw their club out of money. Personally, I would just use the kids ticket. His laddie will probably go to most games so it's a bit of a one off. The adult taking his place might even spend a few quid in the stadium that the OP's laddie wouldn't spend.

Gorgieshed Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 On the odd occasion I don't see the issue. Times are hard and it's more beneficial to the team if its a full crowd. I've done it myself, taken my mums OAP ticket as she couldn't make it and taken my nephew. Sometimes it's more hassle than it's worth changing for the sake of a few pounds.

Done this many times and weirdly on the bigger games not been charged the difference! I think they respect the fact that your trying to pay and don’t bother charging you!

Forrest Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I did it a few times last season for midweek games (in the ticket office), and was sometimes shocked by how much extra we had to pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverforgetfiveone Posted July 28, 2022 Author Share Posted July 28, 2022 Thanks for the advice, still undecided, would save any embarrassment at the turnstile. Don’t want to look like a scumbag Hobo tramp trying to skulk a friend in on the cheap. Could go into the ticket office and upgrade but also like the thinking of donating the difference to the FOH… the club wouldn’t have expected anymore income from the ticket anyway? I’ll have a think about it 🤔 🇱🇻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
