OK, cheers. It's such a pain in the a***
 Yep, 7 times in a row yesterday. Its my saved card too.

I tried adding the card as a new one but it still failed.
In the end I had to use my debit card (which annoyed me as I missed out on lots of points)

Thought it was just me that it kept failing on! When I added the saved card as a new one though it did work for me

It’s a really tricky one. Course I feel gutted for those who have lost their ST by mistake. No way of getting that back in a two or three lifetimes. But the club does send plenty of emails and there is an almost two month window. Tricky one for sure.

Did a quick search for this info but came up with nothing. Does anyone know what’s the policy for transferring ownership of a ST? My uncle isn’t getting any younger and is talking about giving up his ST at the end of next season. This ticket’s been in the family since the 50s when my grandad bought it, then passed down to my uncle. We are very keen for the ticket to stay in the family. As it’s a concession for a pensioner we would need to go back to the full rate and ideally change the name to mine. I know theee was an amnesty a few years ago but I swear I read the club has a rule that it can transfer to family members in certain circumstances. Does anyone know?

Club no longer allows the transfer of a Season Ticket except in extreme circumstances such as a ST holder passing away, even then it can only be transferred to an immediate family member, son daughter etc.. , each request is dealt with on merit.

Thanks mate. This is disappointing. So if an old head who’s knocking on and struggling with health can’t get to the game any more decides to give it up, it goes back to the club regardless of any other circumstances like having been going for decades? They physically have to die to be able to keep the ticket in the family? Seems really unfair…

The perception of a season ticket needs to change

It's not his ticket to do as he pleases with nor is it his seat or his family's seat - its the club agreeing to rent the seat to him for league games the following year.
If he isn't using it, it should go back to the club to give to someone who's been waiting 20+ years for that seat, not to a relative/friend of the family who's skipped the queue

Should do what united do, put a minimum attendance on the holder too

Been wondering this as well, has anything been confirmed at all yet? They need to do it before the bulk sales registration period next week if not as it might affect games people register interest for.

I renewed mine on 1 April last year, as I had a cashback offer on my credit card. Expecting a rise as it would have been announced by now.

Definitely wouldn't surprise me, was reading this piece on the FSA about the supporters groups hitting back at rises and fully expect us to follow suit and increase as many other clubs are...

Last year they went up by 1 or 2 % and I can see it being the same this year. A completely unnecessary move, there's just no need to put what people are paying any higher. It'd be the easiest PR win ever to just keep them the same.

I wish alongside the campaign to keep away tickets £30 a similar thing had happened with home games. We're all watching the same games and they should cost no more than that, it'd put some money back in people's pockets during an already very tough time. This should have been considered even more with a whole host of costly new hospitality tickets becoming available in the new stand.

I would love a flat rate to be applied irrespective of stand but they would never do that.. they circumvented the £77 members ticket prices by abolishing Cat A/B/C

I expect a rise. The club did freeze ticket prices for quite a while before this season.

They will justify it in their usual way. Inflation is where it is, energy rates and commodity costs are up etc.

Whilst FFP wont trouble us any time soon with the TV deal and next season we will be a CL club again, we do need to be sustainable. The new stand with the extra hospitality will help pad out those numbers

I think anything between 1-3%. Anything more will be harsh

Should be reminded that Spurs have put theirs up 6% and scrapped their concession ST's

I'm quite lucky really my ST is in the Kop so mine is the 2nd cheapest in the ground - as others have said I get the whole reasoning behind price increases, inflation, more staffing costs with new stand etc - I am expecting maybe £1-3 a game increase on average maybe about £50 more each. Does make you think though what is even the point if its small amounts for bad PR and earache, as the Bayern president said you argue over £1-2m transfer fees for five minutes in negotiations.

It may pay for 60 seconds of Mo's wages in a day but for the common man it's all relative when prices go up. I await with eager eyes...

Spurs have got that massive stadium debt to cover so I am not surprised by their increase in prices. I have no idea what FSG will be thinking but since the UK public is being treated as a cash cow in other sectors, maybe they will do likewise. Our house insurance renewal arrived today and despite no claims, it's gone up by 50%  >:(

I’m hoping the club recognise the enormous potential left in this season and freeze tickets as a sign of goodwill to fans. Protests could have the potential to shift focus away from the team.

What’s the possibility of moving where you sit when it comes to renewals? I’m in the lower Kenny and the atmosphere isn’t fantastic, always feels quite negative at least where I sit.

How does it work, the seats people have returned become available on a first come basis for those renewing?

Get a GP letter saying you have a bad back etc and are struggling to sit in the small seats or something of that ilk. They will almost certainly move you on medical grounds then, if you just go up to them and ask for a move without a decent reason high chance you will just get told a simple no

Interesting. I mean, I’m not going to do that because it’s a waste of the NHS’ time but I thought it might be kind of a general sale on returns etc. Is the bloke sat next to me going off his box at the linesman 10 times per match not good enough reason? And it is tight, every game there’s knees in my back and mine are in the person in fronts’ back, I’m 5’10/11 so by no means a giant and it’s tight even for me. 

Same mate!  where abouts in lower kenny are you?
KH, a few rows from the front. Tend to be surrounded by Thai tourists with a handful of ST holders.

Mines in KH but up in Row 30 which is decent view wise and there some decent people around me, mostly STH’s but my biggest issue is I’m 6”2 and it’s so cramped it’s ridiculous, a few years ago I didn’t mind so much but the older I get the harder it is

I moved from lower KD yrs ago to lower MS.  Just made a request and paid the difference (MS was slightly higher price).  Bonus was it was before the new MS was built so got to choose a seat in the new MS.  Club may be more stringent on requests now, although I don’t see why.  Just make the request and see what happens.
