Richie Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 This will probably be answered in due course, but what would be the craic re cup semis/finals etc. Would there be pre-sale restrictions/codes sent etc or would it search a db for matches? If its just the software we're licensing I guess that answers itself, It'll just bolt on to the current db. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, now I can access the statement on the Official Site, that seems to be the case. (Exactly the kind of statement my company makes when we sell and configure our platform for clients). I'm more encouraged by that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more encouraged by that rather than have direct links to Ticketmaster. I have worked with them numerous times and they have a terrible habit of putting themselves (and their profits) first. They are not afraid to move the goalposts as well whenever it suits them. If it is a license for the software then we will have a fixed annual rental contract and full control of ticketingand pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see ticketing for both Hearts and Hibs is on a Ticketmaster platform. I'd presume ours will be a similar set up. Edit to add: Hibs have no admin fees and no admin fee for printing at home so that matches with the info from MFC. https://www.eticketing.co.uk/hibernianfc/Common/CustomerNotice/TicketingInformationAndFees Hearts charge booking fees sniders that they are: https://www.eticketing.co.uk/heartofmidlothian/Common/CustomerNotice/TicketingInformationAndFees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 It probably depends on demand. The SRU have been under fire for tickets appearing on secondary websites - Stubhub etc - at inflated prices due to their partnership with Ticketmaster.

Andy_P Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 The SRU's ticketing partner was Viagogo not Ticketmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a designer I’ve been harping on about brand guidelines for years and I’m glad they are eventually coming around to the importance of implementing this properly. Consistency of club colours and logos are a must. I recreated the original MFC script logo for our 125 celebrations and I’m happy to see it is still being used for certain media items. Prior to that they were using any old script font which regulars on here will know used to drive me crazy. I can now rest easy as long as the official club badge is finally applied to our kit in a consistent manner. Fingers crossed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Invitation received for the new ticketmaster platform to renew season ticket. Registered with the unique code, seat already selected, bought with ny debit card and all done in a couple of mins. No fees other than to post it to me (collect for free available). Smashing stuff. Anyone else get it or is a select few to see how it goes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelvinBragg Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Also got the email about season tickets through. There doesn't appear to be the option to pay in instalments mentioned in the brochure. I'll be frank that if there is no option to finance the season ticket, the club will have lost at least two season ticket holders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can choose the Zebra finance option from within the ticketmaster buying process.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Also mentions standing orders on the 'ways to buy' page if that's what you meant actually. That can't be done through ticketmaster by the looks of it. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they sent it to the 'selected few' who would find writting their name difficult or waiting in a que difficult just to see how easy or hard it is to use the site. Iv not had a link sent to me yet by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It pulled up my seat and season ticket ready for renewal. Very easy and well laid out. Like the ability to choose seats if you aint a ST holder.

Busta Nut Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I renewed mine there, i took the finance option rather than batter it on a credit card and paying it up as I usually do. nae hassle had all the conformation now too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoF Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Anyone know why the scoreboard was on the other week, but hasn't been used for ages? I figured if it can work for one game, why not them all? It looked absolutely fine to me by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Followed the instructions in the email, registered, purchased my ticket, simple. I didn't notice an option to select the free juvenile ticket for the Cooper stand, not sure if I missed it or if it will be an option at a later point.
